I may be in the minority but I don't like this new format. I mainly fish stockton, but I like to see posts by others from all over the state and don't like to have to change sub forums to read them. I love this site and appreciatre all the work mods do, and this won't run me off but I'm curious what the thoughts of others are? I am within a 3hr drive of any big crappie lake so I like being able to read about the great adventures others are having.
Whatcha think?
I totally agree with you, this new format SUCKS, I'm like you would like to see what is happening all over the state and sometimes it will help us fish Stockton. Later, Ship
I'll post here what I posted on the Truman forum to the same response:
"Well, we're going to try it this way for a while. We've tried very hard to get past the online bickering between the two lake area's in question, and have not found a way. I've previously thought that Area Forums as opposed to State Forums for areas that have large fishing communities would be a good idea, so the opportunity presented itself here, and this is my first trial. We'll see how it goes. That's what's nice about the Internet, change is easy to make, so we can always change back. Sorry for some of the confusion over multiple boards, but I think it'll be better in the long run.
Oh, I really don't want to talk about that "bickering" that I speak of in the open forum. Some of which has taken place behind the scenes here. It does no one any good. If you have questions, you are welcome to PM me as opposed to airing our dirty laundy here."
Give it some time, who knows, this may increase contributions from different areas. People may feel more free to post.
I understand. Thanks for the explanation and all you do to have a great resource for crappie fisherman.
I can understand the reasoning behind it but I don't much care for change so I'm not doing cartwheels. (THAT would be a sight to see...just sayin'.) Anyway...I'm learning that it's no big deal to switch forums and read there, too. It ain't like we're being banned from reading or posting in those other areas. So...while it's not my personal preference, I'm shrugging it off.
I'm trying to picture JoeDog doing a cartwheel, jumping up off his arse and then doing his best Aaron Rodgers immitation putting the imaginary title belt on!!!!!!Hands ClappingHands Clapping
I'm okay with the threads. I like reading the southern lake reports, especially in the spring because they are usually about 2 - 3 weeks ahead of us up north. A couple clicks to maintain the peace ain't all bad....this forum is a whole lot better than some I have been on where it seems people are sitting back adjusting their sights on their sniper-keyboard waiting to take out the first unsuspecting knucklehead who DARES to enter their kingdom.
Thanks for everything....this site is awesome....now, can we get a separate thread for Keeferfish?????RoflRoflRofl
Us oldtimers will take a while to get used to "change"..newbies will see it as the normal.
No biggie,I'm getting used to being old,don't like it,but can't change it...go with the flow.
so where will mr. beagle man be posting his interesting and very funny stories?
Wherever mr. beagle man wants to.Quote:

Its not the end of the world guys! If your looking for reports on LOZ its easy to find and separated just as it would be in a search engine if you were just looking for those, same goes for Truman reports. Thats the biggest change, it is now filed in the correct folder and much easier to find. I highly doubt clicking one extra time is going to cause a major rift or segregation on the forums.
This is all about Crappie fishing people, lets not forget that, and about meeting good people who enjoy talking about crappie fishing as well. So lets just drop the ego's and help each other catch more fish on all the lakes no mater if its your home lake or not. If I know something that will help one of you catch a limit on a particular lake you can bet your bottom dollar I am going to share that with you, thats the point of this website right?
Cant we all just get along! Come on lets all just have a big hugging session! hahahahhahahahaha
