Keep threads and posts focused on prospecting and metal detecting. Off topic posts will be moved or deleted. When visiting this forum act as if you are visiting my home. I demand that all members be treated with decency and respect. Politeness is the order of the day here. If you can't act like a decent human being go away now. No detector wars, and NO POLITICS. We are here to have exchange information in an enjoyable way. See the welcome message pinned at the top of the each forum for details. Dealers are welcome as long as they abide by My Dealer Policies.
I am not responsible for messages posted by others. The messages express the views of the author of the message, not the views of this forum. Any user who feels that a posted message is objectionable is encouraged to contact me immediately by pm and I will address the issue within a reasonable time frame.

New members have limited access until they have made at least 10 posts and been a member more than 30 days. There is no access to PMs or posting links or ads until after 10 posts and 30 days. Attempting to post links or ads before those requirements are met may result in account deletion. In addition any account that has not posted at all in the first 30 day period will be deleted - the Meet & Greet Forum is a good place to start. Anyone with more than one but less than 10 posts will remain in the Member account status indefinitely. The accounts that make at least ten valid posts and have been a member at least 30 days will automatically be promoted to Full Member status. This will give access to the PMs and the Classifieds, ability to include links, and more.
