Four4islands boycotting RFDs?

[Gaz]

I'm not fully up to speed with all the snitching and bitching between the various practical shooting organisations, but I saw the attached pic passing by on Facebook.

I don't know if the contents or the quotes are true. I know some of Four4islands are on FBUK, perhaps they could enlighten us either way?

Hardly the first RFD to be persona non grata, and yes i saw this on 4islands forum.

'Anyone who contacts Pete after guidance to his door from this forum should make sure they tell him how they found him, Pete had a sign in his shop abusing four4islands & its members, so it is important that he knows where his customers are coming from.'

The above was lifted from 4islands forum,what was posted by the OP will be from the UKPSA forum i presume.

I already boycott a few RFDs, bad service or bad attitudes will always stop customers from using a service.

It beggars belief, on FB we actively encourage RFDs to post in the RFD thread...telling the forum who they are and where they are.

We all need a local friendly RFD and especially new shooters are not always aware of who their local RFD is.

Shooters, united we stand, unfortunately doesn't look that way to me

Yeah all well and good but if and i mean if(wasn't there so don't know) but if someone is knocking you would you sit back and swallow it.

If a member of a forum is "knocking", then perhaps a forum might want to take action against the person concerned.

But its a LOT more sinister when they decide that all mention of said person is banned !! Then it starts to sound more like North Korea sign01

That really depends on the situation. I know I always do my best, if that is not good enough for somebody then I probably can't do much about it.
