Hi John
I think I pointed out at least once that I turned OFF the option to have exclusive group discussions. In fact, I noticed there's an option to always have group discussions automatically put in the forum. I'm going to check that out and see if it's useful. That way, we can form interest groups and still everyone would be able to follow what's going on.
Did you honestly think that I wanted to encourage people to post photos of their family and reports of their trip to Blackpool on this site? Of course not. Over the years, we've seen many members posting step by step reports of builds or research on the forum. The problem is that a forum is not the best and easiest way to do that. Same with appropriate galleries. That is what they are supposed to encourage. Lots of people have blogs already, everywhere on the net. I figured it'd be much easier to keep track of appropriate and interesting blogs if they're on this site!
I hope you now realize I'm not just randomly trying to Facebookerize RAT. If not, I'll try to explain it in person in York. Deal?
