There are a few other forums, (fori ?...) that I used to frequent, but have just about

totally lost interest in. The root problem is almost always a combative position

taken by the forum owner, (there is always one, even if it is not obvious), and

several cronies who have been promoted to "administrators". Any position that is

contrary to their "party line" is met with derision.

So far this is not the case with our community, and I am both delighted and grateful.

Thanks to all the unpaid but not unappreciated efforts.

We looked at both but only signed up here after finding out that the other is dealer run. We signed up on the other one this year to help with organizing the NE Roundup. We found over the years that forums run by shops and dealers always end up turning on themselves and get all political and petty. The whole point of camping is to avoid nonsense like that.

A big thumbs up and a big thank you to techntrek, senior members and all the mods that make visiting this site so much fun. We learn so much each time we log on.

Goose: sending positive thoughts. Wishing Ms. Goose a speedy recovery.

Hats off to all that keep this site up and running.

I am only a member here, and do not desire to be a member of the other forum. While I did use it during my year-long research phase on Pod's I found that in general there were more questions asked here, better and more detailed responses to questions here, less or none of the "Rah-Rah" fluff about RV Nation and Forest River, and it felt more inviting from an overall atmosphere.

I have not been back to rpodnation since I was pushed out from comments and PMs from the other site. We are run by owners of R-pod Campers (both present and past owners) and not by a dealer using them and do treat all that come with respect even if they have another camper than the r-pod. Forest River has been invited to this site and is aware of this site.

Damn Nascar....I've been thinking the same thing for months. Being still in my first year I check both. It seems 75% or more of the ?’s posted here get posted there.

I do find good facts and info from both.

One major advantage here to me is Techntrek and his daily involvement, organization and details to keep things in order and provide checklists, etc.

So a big shout out and thanks to Trek for a great job.

Now off to check Nation posts.

I am a "former member" of the other forum. The main reason I don't go over there is because of a small group, very small, that was rude to me in some messages and emails. There is another reason also. The forum is owned and run by a dealership not by the people that own R-Pods. But I don't hold any grudges to them. They do have some very fine members.
