Truth about the "other" forum. I honestly can't stand to go over there hardly at all anymore. It's a ghost town.

Yep sometimes you can hear the crickets chirping when you post something cool!

The only thing I liked over "there" was the group builds. Cliff with his long running Japanese GB. John (keavdog) ran some really good ones. Bish ran some great ones till he dropped offline. (Hope he's ok). The tip toeing around peoples feelings drove me crazy.

Truth about the "other" forum. I honestly can't stand to go over there hardly at all anymore. It's a ghost town. That's pretty much due to the lack of leadership/ staff presence. Honestly, it's quite a sad thing because I remember when that was a "go-to" place. They could make things better over there if the forum was promoted and tended to more often. I don't want to go much further in saying what's wrong over there or what not.....I'm just going do my part & concentrate on making this place a good spot for modelers to congregate and enjoy doing what we do together.

Both forums that Philo and yourself are also on are primarily focused on selling magazines, books, merch, etc. They are not in the forum but the publishing business and it shows. One is slightly better at the forum thing but the other is stuck in the 90's and they just don't care. It is funny that the "bigger" one promotes the forum in their newsletter but (as I have said before) when I tried to speak to the editors in person at a show I pretty much got the brush off.

I'm just going to put this out there ahead of time because the current subject has the potential to roll off the table if we're not careful. We've all had our hang ups on other forums and while the "other place" has its issues......... a lot of us have gotten to know each other on not only that forum but others as well. With that being said... 1. It's truly great to have everyone here from all the different forums under one "roof" so to speak and it's going to be a blast in rolling forward. 2. Concentrating our energy and thoughts on making this place, the place to be is what is most important. I've known alot of you from elsewhere and I'm truly thankful and happy for it. and 3. To points 1 and 2, we're gonna move forward here folks and make MSC the best place it can be by building with, learning from and clownin' with each other. Whatever any other forum is or is not doing....well.....that's on them. This place (that means the people in it) are what's important to me and we are what makes up any good forum. So with that being said....let's do just that and roll this baby forward. Here's to looking forward to making lots of new memories here.

I guess it needs to be mentioned that most of us are still posting on those other forums. We have not abandoned them completely and likely never will! They are just a different experience than this one.

I post over there, still have folks I interact with, most have come here and are really REALLY great folks VERY HAPPY to hang. I am also shocked at how simple it is to put a picture up. MANY tried at FSM however it just seems so cumbersome. Come here....one of the upper ups is johnny on the spot with help AND for what ever reason made it possible to post from my phone...so much easier than laptop. So I have babbed enough, I am so glad to be part of THIS community with EVERYONE, I will do my level best to help us succeed. Model on Garth.
