I've had a kind e-mail saying "where have you been ?............................." and I thought I'd render forth on forums (forae, fori or whatever more than one forum is). It's true I've been absent but not because the forum is rubbish-just the opposite. It's because I've been sickened by forums, or some of their subscribers, up to the gunnels.
You join chiefly to problem solve and to help like minded people. But as time rolls on you discover the forum has been hi-jacked by a clique. In some cases they're no more than a band of bullies setting out to do no more than make people feel bad. At best, are pundits breast beating to flash off their knowledge and everyone else's ignorance.
On reflection, this forum was never like that, but I just stopped going on forums for fear of the potential abuse.
The trouble is, also, that the guys on this forum were so helpful I've had a working set of kit thus obviating my needs. That's selfish.
I'll make an effort to rejoin the community now I've got that off my chest.
best regards to all
P.S
