To me, Big Fish Tackle is a fine group of people. We enjoy fishing. The technical issues are a small matter to me. The thing I miss the most of what we had and abandoned even within our older site was the beautiful photographs. When we did that, it was like a house burned down and losing all of the valuable memories and photographs. I particularly enjoyed the excellent photography of Tie Dye Twins and thought of each one of them as being worthy of magazine covers and even better! I'm weak on computer knowledge, but what I have observed over the years is computing power, and storage goes up fast while costs go down fast, so it was very puzzling that all of the value I so much enjoyed was deleted on purpose. I didn't understand why no one agreed with me that we should have found a way to keep them. I would use the search feature to look at pictures of places that I might visit and using them for my decisions on where to go next. I miss that the most. It was a valuable resource. In fact, if our BFT website were to be sold, that would be the value that would make it's selling price more than anyone can imagine.
It's like TwilightZone to me that I saw that and no one else commented in agreement in the value of the pictures. I also made some friends, but now I don't remember so much about past fishing trips with them with so much deleted. I'm not complaining because everyone else was fine with it and participated in deleting.
People here are like family to me. That's the real value, so I suppose I shouldn't be concerned. Loss of family history is like a house with memories and photographs burned down. Instead, I accept it and I'm just puzzled, but that's me, and a lot of things of society seem really odd to me. That it's common doesn't make it less strange to me. But, that's just me being different.
