Hiya and question re: shooting.com.au

Post by Mark TAC » 13 Mar 2014, 10:36 pm

After some time, I went to log in to shooting.com.au and found it gone!

Is this the replacement? See some of the same names here......

If not - hello :)

This is a completely different forum and website. That forum was shut down by the owner I believe.

Nope, not the old shooting.com.au forum.

There are a lot of the same guys though so it's all good :)

Yeah it's been gone for a while now.

I think James was the name of the bloke that was running it?

He shut it down anyway as didn't need the hassle of running it that it was giving him anyway.

G'day Mark,

Nope, no relation to the original shooting.com.au site.

Like Nick said we're a bunch of guys from the old forum, and others who were never there. Plenty of folk to chat with either way ;)
See you on the firing line.

And give up the joys of running a forum! No way!

Thanks guys
I saw very similar forums here and same names so assumed.....

Nice to have an active Aussie forum, wherever it is based.

Too much politics and BS on the other forums I know of.

These guys are all right though ;)
