Title: Tradgang is full of wonderful people
Post by: Iowabowhunter on September 13, 2013, 05:15:00 PM
As everyone knows, due to some unfortunate circumstances the classifieds as we know them are going away to protect those who trade. I mentioned how I would be unable to visit the new classifieds due to financial obligations to many other fine places, between conservation groups wildlife centered organizations etc. Nobodies fault but my own, I can't find the time to contribute with my hands so I am a paying member of said fine organizations...some member here, who I have no clue of their identity as it can't be revealed to me, used their own hard earned money to give me contributor status...I am speechless, I hope that I am effectively portraying my gratitude to this fine member and vow to pay it forward when I can. Thank you to whomever gifted me the ability to peruse the classifieds, one of many generous acts I have witnessed @ this fine cyber campfire we call Tradgang

One of reasons why I am so glad I found this site.  

I was talking/bragging about this site to a buddy at work.  In the world we live in, this site is truly a breath of fresh air.  It does a man good to know he can interact with other men of honor, integrity, and generosity.

When I broke my bow a few weeks back, I had several offers for a loaner.  Where else will you find folks who would do that?

There is good people in the world we live in but why is there so many here? I guess the old saying goes," Birds of a feather flock together".  :archer:    :clapper:

Are there actually more good people in trad gang or perhaps there are more people who see the good in others......

If this world would treat each other with the same respect, compassion and care for your fellow man as I have witnessed on here, we would see this nation and world in a lot better shape. Hat off to whoever did this for you....

Iowabowhunter you aren't alone in your blessing.

I posted this earlier in a different thread but I got to thinking this would be a good place to share it as well.
__________________________________________________

Some anonymous person has paid up for me.

I humbly thank you!!

I find it much more difficult to receive than to give.

My 1st thoughts were: "He didn't need to do this! I can handle it myself, it's only timing that has stopped me at this point in time.

I'll use PayPal and repay the money, I could send it to the e-mail address used to notify me."

That was my shame talking... I am not my shame!!!!!!!....

I am humbled and grateful that someone that I do not know would do something this nice for me, Thank you!

God bless you!

PS: I will pay it forward.

That's awesome, but not surprising.  I've met some great people on here and experienced first hand, the generosity and sense of "community" of many Tradgangers.

Jacob,

A simple and sincere "thank you" from the "giftee" is all that is needed.  I'm sure that your benefactor has seen your response and is happy.  I tell people that I've helped out (stuck in snow/mud, a little short of funds at the register, need a handful of feathers or points, etc.) to simply pass it on if you have the chance.

ps:  It wasn't me.
