This is a discussion on Site dedicated to helping and coordinating Texas Preppers within the Texas forums, part of the Regions category; LOL...folks are like...what the hell are they saying....LOL...
LOL...folks are like...what the hell are they saying....LOL
So this site enables people to create their own groups to organize with people who live near them to help each other in times of emergency? Certainly not trying to poach users - simply letting people know that there are additional avenues that can be used in conjunction with what is here to truly help each other. I'm not sure why a forum with more than 15k members is scared about another, complimentary site, that only has ~50 members and is offering a service this site does not.

I would like to hear more about the "services" you offer.
Do you have a pamphlet?
I know folks often like to do things their own way, and as Texas, we're some of the most stubborn people when it comes to this. But this site is more than capable of serving the needs of folks geographically near and far. What is it that you feel is missing here?

first it starts off by people poaching members then they start using the secret handshake - before you know it you are offering slippy a back rub to sell his pikes on your site and making passes at our women folk..
I say NO SIR to poaching, be a member here and do like everybody else does.. use the regional threads to make contacts and the private message tool to plot an overthrow of the forums leadership

We've broken the state up graphically into 17 different districts so it's easier to find people near you. The site also allows every member to setup their own either public or private group, or apply to join those others have setup, to coordinate with others, on your own siloh'd areas with calendar integrated to each for those groups to coordinate and do events. I might be wrong but I don't see that available here.
The site is also 100% free, is not a business, doesn't try to sell you anything, and is completely funded by me in an effort to help those in Texas better coordinate and learn from each other. It's obvious the moderators here are very protective of this community, an admirable trait for sure, but outright censorship of complimentary thoughts or ideas seems a bit much for me.
I think it's worth noting that, if nothing else, this thread has provided some discussion in the "Texas" community PrepperForums for the fist time since Nov 2018. Excuse me for thinking it might be dead in here.
You're going to have to point out for me where you were "censored".
It looked like you came here, to a site with a high membership, to advertise for your own site elsewhere. That post was removed. That isn't "censorship of complimentary thoughts or ideas". That's community solidarity enforcement, the job of any good mod team.
Would you be willing to ask your own members to come here and register? As a show of good faith, I would expect that they will all be arriving shortly to introduce themselves. We'll see if fair really is fair.
Surely you will admit that we offer a well-spring of information that your site does not currently possess. It would be in your own member's best interests to come here.
Unless, of course, you consider that a risk to your own membership. In which case, I think we understand each other.![]()
