    GOC already has private forums Nothing. Scraping data isn't hard. Contextualizing it is one of the hardest things imaginable - that's why social media platforms exist.

    Exactly. Also not all forums have the same permissions and it looks to me as if some forums have been rendered specifically "PRIVATE" or aren't even visible unless your a member. The marketplace, giveaways, troubleshoot and fraud report look private. Off topic, Market place rules are hidden.

    The reason there's so many guests is because some forums are indexed by Google and people doing a google search often find threads here. I've actually been creating some threads specifically to test how Google crawls this site and indexes it's content. Search traffic is essential for the...

    New Range Gun!! Sterling R18!!

    Handled one last night at the range... it's a nice feeling gun. Great job on TSE for putting this out. I'm not in the market for a 3-gun rifle ATM, but whoever picks one up will be very happy. Plus I know TSE will offer top notch customer support if they have any issues. Having one as a...

    TSE's Christmas Hours (2022)?

    Anyone know if TSE is open on Boxing Day? I think they're closed Dec 24 and 25, but thought they were open on Boxing day. Can anyone confirm?

    Is somebody messing with the logo?

    If you saw it and looked at it for longer than 3 seconds, their advertisement was effective.

    Centering the icon is a big improvement. Looking forward to the next improvement!

    Is somebody messing with the logo?

    I haven't caught the new series and my kids don't seem to really be into it... It'll be hard to top FIM, though. In hindsight, my opinion of Vancouver and BC in general was very much swayed for the better knowing it was basically a show about British Columbia.

    I figured you were going to put some sort of widget or something up there.

    Is somebody messing with the logo?

    If I were working as a software tester, I'd report that as a usability bug. In E-Comm, that real estate is crazy valuable. Having a big empty space like that makes for a loss of impressions and loss of revenue. From a usability perspective, a new user navigating to a page (like GOC) or...

    Is somebody messing with the logo?

    Not quite. You guys used to have the GOC banner on the header div a span style graphic that was better optimized for desktop traffic. Now you switched to an icon style graphic, I think maybe to try to create a better mobile experience, but it creates a HUGE dead space in your header...

    A lot of those "guests" are people who find public GOC posts through web searches. Over the years, I've gone back and found my old posts simply by Googling topics I posted about before. That's one way for a forum like this to grow - by having good, public content that's easily search engine...

    American with some questions

    FATCA, FATCA, FATCA... the most Draconian piece of financial legislation any government in history has ever implemented. Long story short - every bank on the planet that doesn't want to get gooned by the U.S. government MUST report to the IRS any U.S. citizens who hold an account with them...

    Double posting whenever submitting new posts

    Hmmm... didn't do it that time... although I just did update Chrome.

    Double posting whenever submitting new posts

    Any idea why I might be double posting whenever I submit new posts? I single click the "Submit" buttons, but for some reason, my new posts post twice. I'm on Chrome v53 on my desktop.

    I can't seem to find the update avatar link. Is it missing or am I missing something?

    Shooting in and around Calgary

    Some clubs (mine included) have drop in programs. Conversely, you can buy a day pass at clubs like TSE or CSC to shoot for just a day. How often are you looking to shoot?
