Please welcome Neighborfoxer as our newest moderator. Although I have never met this young man he seems to have a level head on his shoulders. I hope you all give him a big welcome.

Thank you gentlemen! I am most grateful. No, there's no pay raise. π If life was all about money I wouldn't be a trapper! My payment is the satisfaction that comes from helping and assisting others. Do I need to give an inaugural speech?? I will say a little bit about myself... I am a young man from a very large family, I'm the oldest of nine children. I am not necessarily what you would call a politically correct individual, I am a Christian, and I am proud of my faith. America was built on Christian values, and I think we all have had a good heritage because of that. Although I'm not a pastor, I've been to Bible school, and I'm happy to share my beliefs with anyone who has questions. I've loved everything that has to do with the outdoors from a very young age. I would say that "trapper" has become part of my identity. I definitely don't claim to know everything there is to it, but the trapping bug has definitely hit me hard. I have been privileged to trap 3 different states, and Ghana Africa in my 20 short years. I was blessed to be able to live neighbors to minifoxer, I owe much of my trapping success to him. He took me under his wing and taught me what he knew. I later trapped alongside him in our community, sometimes we even trapped neighboring properties. As I learned more, I gave him a bit of competition, but he was very generous. He even let me use his fur shed. So, that is why my username is neighborfoxer. I don't even call mini by his first name much, I call him neighbor, and he calls me neighbor. He's been a really good friend. I have lots of ambitions as young men often do. I just came back from two and a half years of voluntary service/ mission work in Africa. I am currently very busy with work, and getting settled back in again. I'd also like to get me a lady sometime before I get too old. π I will however, in spite of my busyness, try to do my part as moderator on this site. I'm not even exactly sure what all that entails yet. I have really enjoyed being a member of ATT, I love being able to stay up to date with fellow trappers, learn new things, and share things that I have learned too. It is my desire to serve the trapping community wherever I can. We are definitely a dying breed. Thanks so much to everyone who contributes to making and keeping this such a great site!!

Thanks for the kind words, it is an honor and a privilege to hold this position. Haha! I don't think you have to get too worked up, D. I'm usually pretty merciful, most of the time. ππ I think you've been here on this site before me anyway! You might just get some seniority passes. I was raised right and taught to respect my elders. Just don't get too carried away, we do want to keep it clean. I'd like to be able to continue being comfortable recommending this site to young people who are getting into trapping.
