How did you get here? |
|
For a while, there was just a trickle of new users, then the floodgates opened, and more started coming.
I'm curious to know how everybody found this place. Trooper Max is the only one who can't answer, for obvious reasons.
Anyway, how did you find your way to this website?
I linked from the old Les Stroud forum.
How 'bout you?

Been there, done that. I linked from Discovery>Survivorman>Les Stroud Online>Les Stroud's Forum>Arctic Cove Forum(the previous name of this forum). It's a miracle anybody gets here.
Good to have you.
Now everybody else needs to tell how they got here.

Started back on the old Les Stroud forum, back in the good ole days, then when it kept being shut down and you all came over here, I finally decided instead of waiting for eternity for it to come back, I would switch to this forum. Warm welcome was received and I haven't left

Welcome, I did start this place but it was a crazy long road getting here.
I would have probably never gotten into survivorman if I didnt stay up til 3 am some years back and caught the show
