Most prefer face to face, but yet they are on this site talking back and forth…irony.
I’ve made quite a few GOOD friends through similar sites and eventually meet face to face.
My first out of state turkey trip was actually “brokered” on a site similar to this one. I didn’t know the guy and he didn’t know me, but it turns out we both ended up knowing a couple of the same people that put me and him at ease. Met this guy in North GA and off we went to Kansas turkey hunting. Since that time we’ve hunted about 4-5 other states together, lol.
Is the internet the best place to meet folks, probably not. But, I’ve met some dang good people on it and received some great advice on trapping and where to start looking for turkeys on my out of state trips. In fact one gentleman on here hooked me up in Idaho just this past Spring. Next year we’ll meet up and I’ll buy him a drink (Mt Dew or Dr Pepper) I don’t drink alcohol.
So if “kids” can hook up online and share trapping success and strategy, then go for it. Who knows, they may eventually meet up and become lifelong friends and maybe even business partners.

Heck, I’ll join up. I may actually learn something.

Discord is basically more of a chat room. Think back to the IRC days. I created a trapping one a while back as a backup. You can use a voice chat through Discord if one wanted.

absolutely , met some great people here that I wouldn't have met otherwise


although I met my wife online and that was like a crazy thing in the 90s man , he we are still hitched 22 years later

everything that is a medium not abused to gather the brain trust of like minded individuals who would have maybe only seen each other at a trapping convention otherwise is good stuff.

I think it is extremely awesome that a youth who is a trapper and interested in trapping is intelligent enough to utilize technology that I have no clue about.

I am middle aged, appreciate technology and utilize it at my limited abilities but appreciate what the younger generations are doing and learning with it. My trust is in God that He will lead the youth of today as I teach them His principles and show them how He loves me and them. Times have changed greatly in my life and I smile knowing you are a trapper and desire to communicate and share ideas with technology of today. Continue to think outside the box and use what tools are available to you.

I would love to meet face to face with real trappers but when we come from different states. It's hard to meet with people especially considering I don't have the money for such ventures.

Yeah, it's pretty ironic. I would love to meet these guys face to face as I prefer it that way as well, but it's not always able to happen, so I went to the next best thing.

Yeah, I started it just hoping that maybe the youth who didn't know what Trapperman was would look for a discord server since quite a few already have it

Honestly never heard of them, but it seems like quite a few have the same opinion on it

IRC went by the wayside pretty much when myspace,facebook,twitter started to get more traction. Almost the only difference between IRC and Discord is that you can upload pictures to Discord and it doesnt look like you can nuke somebodies PC through Discord like you could through IRC. Ah the good ol' days

I do not want to be involved in a negative bickering match.

Ok, here is more… the definition of discord.
This is from the Cambridge English Dictionary which includes
the definition and explanation of the uses of the word:

discord noun (DISAGREEMENT)
[ U ] formal
the state of not agreeing or sharing opinions:
marital discord
A note of discord has crept into relations between the two countries.
Compare
concord
SMART Vocabulary: related words and phrases
Arguments & disagreements
argument belligerence bickering blow up conflict contentiousness

Sounds like people on here.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
