Is it kosher on this site to ask to network with each other? If not that's totally cool. By no means do I want to take advantage of a fly fishing site and a fly fishing site only.

The reason I ask is that some of us don't have Brothers, Cousins or Aunts in the mortgage business that watch out for each other. Hence we have to rely on a network of “friends” to do the watching out. Not that I'm particularly looking for mortgage help at this time, but I use it as an example because I probably will again one day. The same goes with attorneys and accountants. I know you’re out there.

I’ve noticed on the member’s list of the site, that our profiles are facetious (some are legit). I like the code names. What if we all updated our legitimate profiles (i.e. personal information--occupations)?

Here is how I see it…

Rule #1 instead of posting a general message “I’m looking for a graphic artist and layout designer” (which I really am), I would personally search the many profiles and contact them directly. Thus, I wouldn’t bother the majority of other members of the site that don’t fit the criteria.

Rule #2 any new member is required to list a ligit profile.

Friendships are created and flourish because of common interests. I think we all eat, drink and sleep--fly-fishing. What a great foundation.

I welcome your thoughts?

Mike and RaposaNegra,

I enjoyed your discussion about the sites tech stuff (in fshfanatics--google add post) even though I didn't understand squat when it came to technical jargon on how it all works.

However as I read, I saw potential, and good intentions with trying to help, and look out for one another. That is what I am getting at in my post regarding networking.

Mike, after reading my post, could there be a way to link a search for member’s legit occupations? If so, it would only be as good as the information supplied, but it's worth a try. It would be nice if we could find out who's who among us in the fly-fishing circle of trust :-)

There's been some "networking" done in the Contributors forum in the past, but of course that's only with the contributors. I'm not sure if networking would be kosher for the site but me and Mike can talk about it. And I don't think there's a way to do an Occupation search on the site unless we did some custom programming.
