No I think what Syds saying is the forum phenomenum of people who post the most often come across as being the most knowledgable, whereas in fact they might just not forum much . Take Ernie or the Majotr, both veritable mines of info regarding our hobby , but neither post a lot , as opposedot me woh posts all the time and knows feck all . :wink:

I see the smilies are taking hold :lol:

Anyways I concur, however in any medium one would be foolish to just take it as read that anyone knows everything and if someone is interested in airsoft, reenacting, macrame and cross stitching (I heard whispers about some of you lads at CR ;) ) I'm sure there are many on here that registered and do not post that could be a veritable minefield of information had they chose to participate, much as there are those whose access to the net is limit and may miss topics where there input would be fruitful (as you said Ernie and Major) by which point the subject has moved on.

The only thing my post count shows is that I get very bored and post a lot of drivel :D

And finally shouldn't you be working out when you have time to post your pictures instead of being led astray upping your post count :lol: :wink:

I don't think anyone did take you seriously syd, likewise we all posted in jest back, its kinda of nice on here that the comments flow that way unlike a lot of other forums even yahoo groups I use where people take everything personally, thats a good thing :D

I'm waiting to see who will rise to yiths gauntlet dropping and now up the ante just so he doesn't have the most posts ... gawn I know one of you wants to :lol:

As for information it would be more interesting to see what the main reason people come onto the forum for ;) I guess most its not only the information held within, its light reading when they should be doing something else :wink:

I'm with JD7 on this one - I like this forum because it IS an interesting and entertaining mix of friendly chitter chatter, light-hearted banter and ****-taking, hints/tips/advice and information relating to the hobby/sport.

I've visited other forums where the vast majority of the content is predominantly 'off topic', nay more, not even vaguely related to the core interest - just a load of people making small talk - which gets a bit dull if you don't feel part of the clique - :D
