Iv'e just realised that it's more than 10 years since i joined this forum , before that i was on "the other side" that was my first experience of internet forums and i cringe to think how i came across , still do sometimes .I think that our community here is a wonderful thing & that we should encourage all that turn up to take part , never knowing what they can bring but also what we can offer. Am i speaking out of turn for saying that it's a shame that some of the introduce yourself posts go unanswered ? It seems to me that posts by people that are more familiar with forums protocol in general get more response but weren't we all newbies at one point ? My idea of community is that anybody that wants to be a part should be included.I think we need to show the way to those who just post with a request for info , at least point out that this is a community that requires those that take part to offer as well as receive.
