    The post in 3 days or be deleted policy isn't designed to boot lurkers or timid members. It's strictly to get rid of the bots that try to get on here.

    It's not a big deal to insist as part of your membership that you introduce yourself and be done with it. Even if that person never makes another post, there was a human on the other end at least once.

    These things also have the means to harvest email addresses and all sorts of information from these forums. Who knows? could even be DOJ Bots for all we know, keeping an eye on the "gun nuts"

    That notch in the rail is supposed to be there

    "Laws that forbid the carrying of arms disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."
    --Thomas Jefferson (1764).

        A couple of automatically generated email messages could be sent to remind them that they need to post. And if the email doesn't go through, nix them.
        Very interesting...

          Maybe it's a DHS plot to make this forum look like a terrorist hookup site or something!

            Never trust anyone who doesn't trust you to own a gun.
