God , I love you people!

 

[Mr Jody Hudson]

Thank you Oleg and thanks to all who are helping you to put this all together!

 

[krept]

thanks

 

[ninenot]

Thanks for the site.

May you, Oleg, and ALL the staffers enjoy a most blessed New Year--you all sure made Christmas merry for us TFL alumni!!

Best Wishes.

BTW: there's a Tolkien quote above, to the effect that it is not the swords, knives, or rifles which he loves--rather, it is what they defend that he loves.

Same thought was in Chesterton: he approached it in discussing war and stated that it was not that the soldier hated what was in front of him (the enemy) rather, that the soldier loves what is behind him (the homeland, the family.)

Thus, war is NOT an act of hatred, but of love.

Interesting take, I think.

 

[Shane]

Great. Glad to see that TFL lives on in a new form.

 

[trapshooter]

Howdy, all. Back from up north. My first post here. Hey, Oleg! (And all the help) Nice place! Are we having fun yet?

 

[dfariswheel]

Thanks Oleg.The Firing Line was the classiest forum on the web, and this looks to be a worthy successor.

 

[grampster]

Thanks for taking the torch, Oleg. I have gone from being dark and moodily depressed with the loss of TFL, to happy and pleased with the torch passing and the creation of The Highroad.

Looking forward to seeing familiar folks and new ones too.

I was more of a lurker than anything else at TFL, and intend to be here also. I'll throw in an opinion when I can add something of value.

I just came over from The Firing Line. I lurked there quite a bit, posted when I thought it was appropriate. I see a number of familiar names here and I am looking forward to the same high quality discussions.

 

[John/az]

I'm glad to find a new home!

Thanks, Oleg!

 

[BigEd]

Thanks to all who created and participate on this forum. It has been a while since I could post much on any forum and came back to find many going, gone or inactive. This site has the potential to be great. Thanks again, Ed

 

[stubby]

I look forward to the contiuing "high road" of firearms discussion.

 

[Big Al]

FIRST POST - IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK!

 

[SteelyDan]

My thanks to all who helped to make this possible.

 

[MLH]

Thanks Oleg

I was wondering if we could get a pool up on how long it takes C.R.Sam to become the #1 poster.

 

[Cabby]

It's nice to be home again.

Like Cabby said, and, a lot of thanks to Oleg and all the moderators. Have a nice, healthy and SUCCESSFUL New Year!

The site looks GREAT.

 

[buzz_knox]

Thanks, Oleg and crew. It's starting to feel like home already.

 

[glockten]

Thanks, Oleg and staff, for all your efforts. I'm glad to be here.

Happy New Year, everyone.

 

[VaughnT]

Well, here's my third post and the third time I've said thanks. I completely agree with the THR Statement of Purpose and look forward to many long evenings in front of the computer, reading a good post or two.

 

[HukeOKC]

Wow, that was fast! I just got here but it looks great so far.

To all who made it possible, Thanks!!

 

[El Rojo]

El Rojo checking in.

I just need to check in real quick before I start playing Operation Flashpoint for a few hours. Thanks Oleg and all others who made this happen.

PS: I only have one post!!!

 

[Ebbtide]

I don't think I can thank you enough, Oleg.

Once Again,

Thank you!!!

There were many forums suggested to visit in place of TFL, this one seems to mirror it pretty well so I registered here.
I knew TFL would be sorely missed and that it wouldn't be long before someone created a replacement. Good job and thank you.
