Why is this forum page filling up with random modelling posts?
Posted by Phil_H on Monday, August 27, 2012 7:00 PM

Isn't this page supposed to be for questions about the forum itself? (ie. how to use the forum)

There are topic specific forums for modelling questions - why are people posting here instead of using the appropriate forums?

No offense to you Silver, but I can get all the great modeling advice I need from members of the clubs here that I partake in. Some world class modelers are there in them. You are a valued guest here, like many others are as well.  But you may want to check your approach method here. A little humility goes a long way here. You have been there and done that in a particular line of work that some of us model, and I do respect that, but so have a lot of other folks here in other areas and/or parts of the world. Please show and share your work with us here. I for one am always open to learning new techniques that I can incorporate into my own.

I think all of us users periodically need to scroll down the whole list of forums, as new forums are added occasionally. It is especially important for new users to take time to do this.

There will always be a few users who are firm in their ways who decide one forum (frequently this one) is the appropriate spot for all messages, but hopefully there are not many of these.

Thanks,
