Good evening Stu. Your concern is understandable and I would not question the validity of the points your making. I enjoy reading the geographic sub forums and find that each one seems to have a unique personality. The knowledge demonstrated by the red tags, well versed hobbyists and regular members inspires and amazes me. The 160 page thread, like the storm, was epic. To see so many, at least to me, new screen names and avatars taking part was enjoyable. Was their banter in the thread? Sure there was. Was I also guilty? Absolutely. Are the Moderators in control? Yes, continually. The moderators post, contribute and when necessary guide the product. In this forum, as in others, the Moderators are skilled in knowing when to tighten or loosen the control. Memories may be uninteresting but for some of us it’s all we have to share. There is a stand alone memory thread but sometimes a memory is an appropriate/good response in any thread. Thank you for voicing your concerns and also for listening. As always …
