    I haven't quite figured this one out? Isn't a "gun" contest on a "bowhunting" website kind of like an abortion Dr. Advertising on a pro life web site? Not trying to stir the pot just thought it was a little odd IMHO?

    That's comparing apples to oranges.

    Now if we had a anti hunting contest on a bow hunting website...there's your anaolgy.

    Bowhunting.com not deer hunting.com. That's all I'm saying.

    Then don't join the contest if you don't like it.

    That's the route I'm taking... But I can kind of relate in that tapatalk sucks to use during the fall bad enough all ready with 100 team threads for the bow contest, add in a gun contest and it's going to be even harder to wade through to find real threads.

    I wish there was a way to block those particular forums in tapatalk from showing up.

    I agree with this. Seeing all the team threads pop up when I click the new posts button really makes a mess out of things and makes it harder to find something actually worth reading. I would be great to be able to block them from popping up on my feed. But, I realize that's not really possible.

    I would rather see all of the team threads pop up instead of...what's your unicorn name. Jmo

    I promise this will be the only time you see the gun contest on the bow hunting section. I apologize for the inconvenience I hope it didn't ruin your guys day.

    If you don't like McDonalds way of operating... Go to Burger King and enjoy your whopper.

    I think you missed the point, then again that is how gun posts end up at an archery site in the specific bow hunting forum

    I understand your point... And agree with it. Just offering a simple counterpoint for those of you truly bothered by this one reminder thread leaking into the bowhunting forum.

    I am not bothered just curious how the thought process works, and that is curious the ones that are bothered are the ones who are in the wrong
