I was doing a little internet surfing. I came across some stuff about a legendary, infamous character of the PAW and gun board worlds. He went by Gunkid, Andy, .223fan, and at least a dozen other handles. Did he ever curse this board with his presence? I got the displeasure of crossing paths with him firsthand, on another board.

"dozen other handles" sounds like someone who gets banned on a regular basis...

He did. I personally banned him twice. He was hateful, combative, and dangerous. His version of a survival plan revolved exclusively around stealing and murder to get what he needed.

Before my time here but I know of him from elsewhere. There have been some real "legends" in the prepper/survivalist world. For some real "fun" you might want to check out lonelymachines.org/mall-ninjas/ for a laugh of two. |

Thanks. I'll have to check that out.
I'm familiar with Mall ninjas but Melvin AKA gun kid was a totally different breed. He was legitimately dangerous and the guy we would be forced to shoot if there was ever a real balloon go up. if anything and everything ever does really go south I hope I don't cross paths with someone like him.

Friend,
Gunkid left the scene shortly before I started frequenting Forums…
But this Forum was founded several years after that.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this Forum founded largely in response to Frugal Squirrel banning fiction on his forum?

I've only been a member for about 5 years and lurked for a couple of years before that. When did the big FS shake up happen? I'd have to see when I got copies of Deep Winter and Tom Sherry's other two books in the series from him but that was well after the the Squirrels went nuts.

I think the Squirrel went nuts before checking the dollars and sense of what he was trying to do.
Before you start a P***ing contest with the people who use your forum, you should check the stats on who spends the most time there - those are the people your advertisers care about. More time on the forum = more ads seen = more sales by the advertisers = higher ad rates and more money to keep the site afloat. Just simple dollars and sense.

Fortunately, this forum seems to be healthy with great Admin, other than allowin' lowlifes such as myself to join.
