    Tyler "suburbs"... :)
    I haven't see a lot of this, however, I have seen a LOT of people posting new threads with click-baiting thread subjects/titles, similar to:
    "What do you think of this?", or "Now that's a horse of another color" and they aren't even funny-threads...

    "Just wondering..." was another Topic: https://www.texasguntalk.com/threads/just-wondering.113196/ and the thread starts like this:
    Does anyone know why your AR should have or hopefully already has a chrome plated bore and chamber? Yes..? Incidentally, your old, foreign AK probably already has it. Just fyi...

    Almost like these are the people from my work that don't know a subject is for specific subjects...
    Hell actual Managers at my work said that e-mail subjects are not supposed to be specific, what an useless idiot she is...

    Soon we will have every subject start with "Happy Thursday!", when they are really specific to a topic.

    It may be my imagination, but I've seen some odd posts lately where individuals are asking leading questions and pretending (or maybe not pretending?) to be pretty stupid about guns and such. Makes me think we might be getting visits from some forum trolls that like to make trouble. Resist the temptation to help them cause trouble and hopefully they'll find a

    Your position has merit as we must remain vigilant. Caution must be exercised as one never knows who may be watching or listening. My only concern would be this: How will we pass valued information to others? I am new to the forum and hope to learn as well as contribute. Even at 50 years of age i must humbly admit there is still much to learn about this sport i love. Obviously going to the range, fellowship with like minds, and face to face interaction is best. I think we can safely agree knowledge is invaluable and why we are here.
