Seems to be different for everyone. age seems to matter. Here's a statement from a friend of mine:
"I was told full recovery takes about a year. Been two for me as of last Sept. Can't get off the ground without something to hold on to, going up stairs has got a lot better but worry about falling so always use the hand rails. Getting up from a chair without something to hold on to is a chore! I have to say the knee is about 200% better bet I doubt it'll ever be 100% again. Haven't tried getting on a horse in a long time, no way could I pick myself up with that leg. Would I do it again? Don't think so at this age. I'd got pretty used to walking to keep that knee from hurting and after the replacement I had to start all over. I was up on that knee and walked just a bit with a walker the same day. Used a walker at home for awhile them went to a cane after a month or so. My knee had been eaten away with arthritis and the other is working on it! " quote
I think we are off topic. :)
I used to pretty much "live" on these forums on a daily basis.
Before the current community we had the old one and I was there too since the very beginning!
I probably posted on every section and, met, fished or hunted with, many fantastic people whom I call friends to this day.
A while ago however, I noticed that a lot of attacking is taking place on all the posts and no matter who says what, hostile words follow!
Many of the people I enjoyed interacting with, left the forums for good. Some were former moderators themselves.
So, I was turned off and started just reading and not saying much anymore...
This right here, is one of my occasional returns and look what I find right away! It is a sad (but true) topic.
IWent south for the month of Feb and when I got back the site had gone south. I can only get in using this tablet thing and I havent the patience to pound away what seems akin to picking fly chit out of pepper with boxing gloves. I cant even get a reply from admin to resolve the problem. Even a spanky new computer has not helped.
Soooo, for now I lurk on the few theads that let me.
Download an app called Tapatalk that makes forums user friendly on mobile devices and tablets. Also makes uploading pics easy.

Gee I don't know - I guess I look at things a little different - to me it seems as soon as a thread gets interesting it is shut down - still too many are too thin skinned and let everything bother them - after all a little fighting with words is good for the soul - you have to have a little sense of humor and things won't sound as bad - as long as there isn't any cursing I say let it fly
You VERY rarely see a thread shut down here.
Gee, get that problem fixed Sawbill; we need you!
I personally don't think any post should be shut down as long as there isn't any bad language - people need to get a sense of humor - a lot of times I post things that some people don't like or agree with but a lot of times I'm just adding a little humor to the post - too bad it is missed - take one of my latest posts - entitled - why I carry - during the course of the discussion some guys took a shot at me being too old to handle a heavy caliber gun - I shot back a couple rounds mixed in with some humor - I thought it was an interesting conversation but bang - the thread disappeared - I think for no reason - heck I took no offense to what the guys said and I'm sure they didn't either - at least I don't think so - well anyway - back to yard work - things are all quiet on the southern front - no vans plowing into people -
