I checked and there is no "Primitive Archer" group just the magazines page. You should start a new group and admin it and bring the staff from here into it as admins as it would be associated with the magazine. I run a kayak hunting and maryland chicken group. I lay the law on those FB group as you have too. I tolerate no BS and when they name call they are warned and when they back talk me they are banned. I keep civil groups.
I hate the people hammering newbies for asking questions they have answered before. I tell themtoo to shut up. You need to answer to complain but can't answer the question? Then go back to your hole, I tell them. The problem with these groups is the Admins running them. The Kayak Hunting page has almost 6K member and its all civil as that is all I allow.
I have been spending some time at the Facebook Selfbow page, offering advise, sending out a few free gizmos and such.
A guy posted a bow he had for sale that was badly hinged in the fades and dead straight to the tips. I commented on the site that he he wasn't much of a bowyer, someone had pasted his bow sale from another site, they were as shocked as I was, it wasn't on Facebook. I said would send a gizmo to him if anyone knew him. The bad thing was he had 28 sales listed on his order page, I don't condone this type of behavior, selling a bow like that to someone who doesn't know a bow from a football bat and for $300 no less.
Anyway, this jerk lit into me (not the bowyer) with the most profanity laced vulgar nonsense about how I didn't know anything, I gave him my bow making credentials which seemed to make him even madder. Before long a bunch of similar minded stooges jumped into the fray and lit into me.
I asked the admins to take me off the page so I wouldn't get notices of any future posts from these classless halfwits.
I am so glad the PA site exists, honorable men and some of the best bowyers on the planet who respond with consideration for others, thank you guys!
