    I doubt any come back and log in every now and then, I would rather they find the manual elsewhere, not post crap just to get the manual and view the forum as they wish if that's the case

    Why not just remove the 25 post thingo and let them down load it and then they won't fill the forum with 25 post of crap. Or, don't have them available, or, only have them available upon request. any of those ideas would surely stop the 25 post of crap. But then again, how many people do come here just for the manuals, and then find themselves stuck here and making friends?

    Yeah, gotta agree there, old mate... it is a bit of a PITA when you click on an interesting thread topic because it has a new post and the new post is just a pad.

    FWIW I agree with mudski and Winnie, if that makes sense.
    On one hand I have always spoken against the 25 post idea but happy to bow to the decision back when it was a hot topic.
    On the other hand if it has meant an extra mate or two that has hung around then thats OK as well.
    Lots of good people on here that I'll never meet in the flesh in my lifetime.
    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    Cuppa nailed it right there. I apologise for the ship that gets put on here from time to time but its the foundation of building this place. It bought a lot of traffic to the forum and we snagged a lot of members and good friends as a result of it folks
