Hi OneGun,

Welcome to our forum. It's not that complicated, Taz or Mike or I are usually around to get you going. It's a really unique forum with some great folks that can become part of your life in a way your wouldn't expect.

How can you have just one gun?

Don't get discouraged, it's only for a short time. It keeps spam accounts off the site, which is really nice. Anyhow it's worth the very brief wait - this is a great little oasis of good stuff on the internet. :)

Welcome :) it only takes less than 20 moderator approved posts to get you going. It is addictive to post here especially when you get to interact with personable and likeable folks who like knives with round holes in them.

Welcome OneGun. Have a little patience. It'll be worth it. It really is a great group here. As Julia mentioned, the post approval process for new members is a necessary evil to keep all the spammers at bay

BTW, you may be able to only have one gun but if you hang around here long enough there's no way you'll have only one knife. :)

@OneGun
It's definitely worth being here and learn knives and the surroundings like steel, sharpening, ...

Welcome!


The probation thing will pass. Apparently this forum is a hot spot for spam and they have to take certain precautions to prevent it. I remember seeing new members even posting things that seemed like real legit posts and then 10 posts in they're spamming the site.

This is good to know. I’m relatively new and thought the post approval thing was to be an ongoing trial.

That's easy!

I get the feeling OneGun came and went (as he said). Too bad if so. I don't remember it being all that troublesome getting through a brief moderation period.

I’m pretty new around here, at least from an active poster point of view, and I’m pretty sure curfew was over before I had time to shot all my guns ...there might be slightly more than one though
