where have all the people gone?

I don't post often but pop in from time to time, and after the bees pack it in for the winter I spend more time with my muzzle loaders and go shootin until around mid March then shift back to the bees. Jim

 

I'm sure when the weather warms up, & the girls start flying, the board will pick back up...........at least I hope it does. It's a great board.

 

As I get ready for my first hive. I'm just soaking it all in

 

A lot of them can be found at www.worldwidebeekeeping.com

 

if you think no one is here there's less posting going on there

 

I'm here again after being gone for a while. not that I was posting anywhere else. forums are usually a come and go thing for me. usually not much life in them to keep me interested.

 

bee stung, I think the stings are effecting you somewhat. Took 18 months to get 10,000 posts here.
They got over 36,000 over there in 10 months.

 

I know I stopped stopping in when a couple of people from, a forum I left before showed up here and starting being their usual unpleasant selves. So, I just forgot to check in for a long while. I figured I would come by and see how things were shaping up and lo and behold, it's a ghost town!

I really like to chat with other bee folks, just I won't put up with know it all, bags of wind.

Also, now that I have the gig at TechDissected, I would love to bee able to pick my fellow bee folks minds in regard to the tech tools that we bee folk use. I have the opportunity to make a lot of people who are into making websites, smart phone apps, and other tech tools more aware of the needs of beekeepers. You folks can help me make that happen.

 

Yep, definitely coming back to visit. :grin:

 

Click on blogs and read a few of the headlines. The biggest reason so many left was the lack of spam control.

Is this what beekeepers want to find on beekeeping forums.

stopforumspam.com can be set up to screen them for you. It will allow the good ones in, kick out the bad ones, and hold the questionable ones till you accept or deny them. It saves you a lot of time and aggravation.

 

Spam-o-matic works wonders. On our Club's website, use use that, plus, at registration I ask a question about a sentence "below". In the next sentence, I write a note to Spammers saying that each registration is moderated, and in addition, each post is moderated (something impossible for beekeepingforums) and I've not had one spammer try since (there were scores of spammers each day until the spamomatic and the questions).
