Just to be clear, because I worry about this stuff, I was voting for the forum to please continue, NOT for blacktank to leave...I missed whatever kerfluffle kerfluffled and stick to the keep calm and carry on mantra for the most part

Black tank is still here. He’s just been relieved of having to make it all work.

Popeye and I are pulling things together - mostly Popeye. I’m learning.

I’ll try to do my best and figure out how we can expand things and bring in more folks.

I would like it to be more inclusive also Roamer like you said. We are much more than vans after all.

I ended up on Bob’s forum because it was cheap rv living and I was looking for a way to save some bucks. I had a tiny camper (9 ft long) at the time and was also looking for ways to configure it for storage.

Anyone else want to share what brought them to Bob’s forum in the first place? What do you think would bring people here?

There has to be tags somewhere that we can use that will come up in a search engine.

Roamer. This isn’t “MY” forum. I hope all of us are in this together.

I guess we need rules.

Rules: Don’t be an asshole.

Nah. There were harsh things said and you got your feelings hurt. My two cents/the way I see it. Are you sticking around? I hope so.

That's why religion and politics should never be discussed "in public." I've always tried to avoid those anyway.

those are passages out of an old novel describing my family so i am literally the devils dick of hellgarth,gentle johnston, guardians of the western march 

i could careless what internet people say about me

i am disappointed in myself that i let the background noise kill a once active forum
The most users online at one time was 867,used to have thousands of people looking at the forum because of the great vandwelling info here but the background noise became louder and louder till there was no vandwelling left,last thing i did was to delete that noise,looks like the first thing they are doing is bringing it back

so sorry to hepcat,mo, optimistic paranoid,sternwake for letting the noise drown out their work,i'll do better next time,my bad

looks like cammy has the reigns so my work here is done

well I don't care who has the reins.......what I care is who has total control on banning members and such. I mean 'real control' and not some censor people or ban people cause whoever has 'power' has a damn bad day themselves or anything like that Wink I would like to see some real control here with real admin. ya know. real moderation for sure. I mean we all know a tad of moderation can be a good thing LOL, but not overkill.

BUT yea Camm.....what brought me to van dwellers is that I wanted cheap also and tricks and tips for living on the road to save money.....find out cheaper places to hit like parking lots on the road while long travel and then also wanted info on more boondocking that we wanted to do.

So I ain't no van LOL, won't ever be....lowest I ever intend to go is a small Class B if hubby croaks and I am on my own Smile

Road Life while traveling and all it entails. and all that other crap that goes with it Smile

I'm glad to see the forum rise from the ashes. Phoenix Mode! The flight of the Phoenix. With a new pilot and maybe co-pilot. And now...I have a suggestion. Can we have a suggestion box?

A thread where we just toss in ideas. Things we'd like to see added, changed, or removed. Then the owners/mods/courtjesters can act or react. Or not. 

Just a suggestion.

I get it. Me too. But the way it’s worded it seems more of a forum issue thing other than just suggestions? But I dunno. Any changes needed to the way it’s worded or make it two separate areas?

I’m off for the hills of Brenda today to see if I can spot any pretty rocks.

Keep the suggestions coming in so we can all have what we want.

Oh well then oops. 

Chit chat never hurts. Human nature is to share with those we care about. Virtual campfire or whatever... But "we" went too far into the weeds on wrong topics.

Bob's videos brought me to CRVL forums. Wasn't homey, too fighty, not welcoming.

Found YARC, found you guys, and felt at home. 

Rule suggestion: No religous or political topics. COVID discussions limited to helpful info. No vaccinne pro/con discussion. Everyone can be very passionate about these topics. BUT everyone is allowed their own opinions on them too.

Part of the draw to RV life for me is the social aspect. So I don't think having a "campfire topics" area is a bad thing.
