The old threads are locked, because forum vets get angry when noobs resurrect old posts. When I started here, this was wierd to me because other forums I have been part of get angry when there are several threads on the same subject. I noticed that here, the membership would generally like you to start new threads. I see advantages to both ways. Either way, it's not Roger's fault that this happened, or quite frankly, anyone here in the Buck community. Gross negligence on the part of the owner has caused this. I dont think theres anyone more upset than me about the inability to post pics. The green 196 above is the only knife ive purchased on this forum. Ive sold one knife that i really wanted to trade for something else. There is literally no "value" in the fee ive paid to belong here. I just enjoy sharing my photos with yall, seeing yours, and learning a little bit more than I knew before. We will have to work through it. I dont think anyone has purposefully hijacked your quota. I will contribute because I get enjoyment out of the community. Not sure what will happen when I have to renew. This is the only social media I use. No ig. No fb. Not even youtube. No games on my phone... lol... sharing pics with other Buck lovers is the only reason I'm here. Hopefully ownership figures out what he has.
