I bet their host isn't the best and the people running it aren't tech savvy enough to call the host out. It is really hard to move all your data once it is all in place, it can be a risk to move it at times. I feel for them having issues like that, I know how it feels.

I wonder what is going on this time.

Looks like it's back online

That site is all but dead.

Sad to say, but it's the truth. The magazine died, they quit shipping items from the store, and there's a fraction of the membership active.

Hell, in the last week, there have only been 120 people logged in to the site. 180 in the last month...about 660 since January 1...out of over 9k members.

And most of those people, including me, haven't posted much. Hell, I post in the turkey forum and I start getting called out by people for not killing a turkey and talking about turkeys and turkey hunting.

Hmmmm....... maybe a sub Salty Cajun forum

That was once a very active forum. Print magazines are going to be completely dead in the near future.

I think online forums will be too. At least localized ones will be. This forum isn't nearly as active as it once was. Facebook groups are taking the place of them. Not to mention the negative attitude many people have developed towards online forums, especially hunting- and fishing-themed forums. The perception that these forums foster a lot of internet scouting and "overpopulation" of hunting and fishing areas drives people away.

I still read every now and then, but rarely post because there just isn't anything to contribute to. Same for Bayou Bucks. Instead, I frequent the underbelly of the internet...the asylum of bayou bengal fans. What a bunch of degenerates that place has. It's like there are 1000s of Waltrips and Renes running amuck over there.

Forums are what members make of them. My past experience with them was a group of negative members would ruin a forum without someone doing something about it. Every person has to face the fact that everyone has an opinion (some more than others) and no one is perfect. I have learned a lot from this forum, Facespace sucks because it is people being nosey, that is why I rather a forum...... not to mention it is like a book because I can search for old info. It is what you put into it.

Yeah... this looks different than the other times it has shut down in the past.
Probably not a good thing

I guess I'll need to find another place to talk about deer hunting.

First it was the Mathews Forums... Now Bayou Bucks

Granted I live in TX now. But I really like TBH. TBH and salty Cajun are pretty much the only forums I bother with.

Bring it here. This place isn?t just about fishing. Most threads haven?t been too active, but I find the ones on a good subject, like the trout decline in BL, usually have a good response to them.

I hasn't been on tapatalk since the last time it went down. I just checked and it's back.

With all the problems that site has had lately, it's no wonder it's pretty much dead. Seems like every couple of weeks the site goes down for some reason.
