"BigRed's mod credentials should be turned on"

Is worth five times the points. 5x10= 50 quality posts.... easy cut and paste.

Can thread topics be posted in purple?

i think i need someone to define what differentiates a "quality" post from a "non-quality" post. seems like a kinda vague threshold.

I'll venture out for this one. It is vague, intentionally I believe.

Really it means, do the current residents of this board like what you are saying and how you approach the forum known as INGO.

In some cases it might involve not liking what you are saying, but not being a troll about it is important. From your examples so far I don't think you have to worry about that.

There is no set definition. Kinda like the Supreme Court and pornography. "We'll know it when we see it." Be patient. Keep conversing.

And Scars kinda suck anyway.

During the interim period between joining and getting 50 "quality" it generally means not posting short one liners and such in a race to get to 50 to gain access to the classifieds. Those will most likely get clipped. After 50 "quality" you can pretty much post anything (within the rules of decorum) although it is encouraged to post at least something that adds value to a discussion.

Hope this helps.

Hello fellow pew enthusiasts,

I just joined

A little background on myself:
Grew up in a very firearm friendly house, learned to shoot from a young age and it’s been a big part of my life for 20+ years.

I recently started expanding my collection a lot, and bought an estate (everything firearm related except the actual firearms) a few weeks back. Took me nearly a month to catalog everything. 30k+ rounds and more reloading equipment than I know what to do with..

Definitely not a bad situation to be in but was feeling a bit overwhelmed with the sheer volume of stuff :scopes, ammo, primers, powder, bullets, casings, presses, and dies.

A close friend that’s a member recommended this forum and here we are.

Now for the problem. In the 8 hours since iv been a member iv already spend close to 2 hours diving through the reloading forums. I foresee a lot of time spent on this forum (maybe too much lol)

Anyways glad to be here, I look forward to tapping into this encyclopedia of information and hopefully can make some contributions myself in due time.

Just like the Hotel California;

You can check out any time you want, but you can never leave.

the fact that I am still here disproves the theory of adding value being a necessity

Hello klaus my friend. Value is overrated. Nice having this discussion with you that has no value at all.

Im pleased to say that everyone seems remarkably chill and i havent noticed any trolls or scammers which actually surprising.

@PSOD

ohhhh Kut that out, if you're not careful you'll end up hammering your Jeep! (You'll get the references some day...)

We have our share of trolls, though I think as a forum and as a group we have been pretty tolerant to retain a balance and challenge our own biases.

The Mods (current and Emeritus) are a solid bunch who are tolerant and courteous, until the line is crossed.

Enjoy the time sink which is INGO.
