After a long few years of moving around, getting married, and now finally owning a home I'm ready to get back into this great hobby. Saw a few things that changed, what did I miss? I'm into wilds and saw that apparently no sponsor here currently imports wilds anymore with the exception of john who seems to be a hard man to get in touch with.

Hi Zach and welcome back. :) Check out Jimmy Discus. He has a wild shipment with pics in his sponsor section here on the forum.

I'm afraid its not just you Zach :( . I feel that forums in general are loosing their battle with today's Facebook groups .

Yes we do Rugal .
But we , the forum members , tend to keep our main focus on the forum as a tool of sharing knowledge instead of transferring it on a FB .
At least that's what I would like to do

I tend to stay away from Facebook other than to follow suppliers and what not. Not a huge fan of Facebook groups. It's a shame because this place used to be busy and people were always sharing. Not so much now
