I've been a member of the AGF & BBS for approx 11 years & never had any real issues. Well if people aren’t happy with those two forums , which is a fair few of us who have been banned then why not . Go on other forums a see what others say about them , even the ones which haven’t been banned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been a member of the AGF & BBS for approx 11 years & never had any real issues. Agreed. I'm not a big user of them any more and only very occasionally dip into them, but the rules aren't particularly onerous to follow and if you don't like them, don't use the sites. It's daft to go somewhere else and bad mouth them for the sake of it; it's petty, vindictive and unnecessary - and certainly won't change anything. Just stop using the sites and save the blood pressure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I know you can contact the mods and ask the question why, you don't even need to be a member to do it, but I've never been banned so I've not had to do it?? Answer me this, why do you think you were banned? I've never even seen you start a post on here and 90% of what you post is negative, we're you the same on there? 1 hour ago, villaman said: Freedom of speech is not allowed with opinions either most toxic forum around I can't really agree with that mate, there are topics they don't allow, the same as this site, like I said some good guys posting good stuff, for me mostly in the hunting section, general airgun and technical section, quite a few bits I don't look at, target & replica just not my thing. It's a busy site, with lots of threads to keep you interested, but it's clearly run differently to other sites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mice! Posted July 3, 2022 Report Share Posted July 3, 2022 You see some people say the forum is various things as you can see above, except people help each other out, send each other pellets to try, lots of folk who do repairs or tunes, multi buys to save money and move things around the country passing gear on to other members, I sent a completely unknown fella a single shot loader to try, simply because I liked what he posted and had it back within a week. Pretty much like this forum, you get out what you put in. 3 minutes ago, Richard308 said: Any idea of the cause and is it permanent?
