I quite agree with you Colin.
It is a shame that the selfish actions of those that only use this site to promote their own has affected everybody. Those that continually include links to their own sites, do not contribute to these boards, and moan when something is done about it, with their most productive post to date.
I was disappointed when I could not upload a few images onto a thread last night for identification because the rules have been changed because of a few who have taken the mick.
Now everybody suffers because of a situation that I dared flag up a few weeks ago and was shouted down about. Why? Because I actually cared to give a toss.
after all this is supposed to be a forum !!
Dont apologise Julie. You are 100 percent correct. Some members know exactly what they are doing.
I think the changes are for the best and something that we will all have to get used to.
Thanks a million Colin
