Friends,Many of you know I am on several forums 5 to be exact..My "home" forum is the RailRoad Forums.(RRF)..However,I enjoy 4 of the 5 because of the Harmony and friendship..The 5th one I am not sure I will be going back to because of the discord.
Now,no one or two persons make a forum..WE as members make the forum..It can rise or it can fail its all up to us the members...It can also crumble into nothing.
Members will come and members will go..While we hate to see old friends leave and will miss their comments that can never be changed as its a fact of life folks will leave for many reasons both good and bad..
I have no idea why Paul and Charlie left and to a degree its not my affair after all it was their choice..But..Know this..I wish them the best of luck and still consider them as forum friends..
Now as far as disagreements well let's face the facts that will and does happen.We all have our own approach to the hobby and this of course will reflect the answers we give to the questions being ask and not everybody will agree with that reply..
As far as repeat questions well how is a person going to learn if they don't ask? Remember this as well..A new answer may appear because the person that makes the new reply did not see or reply the first time around when the question was ask..Also new ideas or opinions from others may show up from some new knowledge gain.
As far as pictures..Well,I always enjoy looking at other's models as I can see some excellent ideas that I can"steal" for use on my own layout.I can snicker if my models look better or cry if my models don't look as good.
LOL!
Now there are many knowledgeable modelers on the Gauge..Its a great forum and a great place to be... :thumb:
