 Subject:  Re: Why are we nit picking the DML Pz. IV E?List thread.  
  
 Date:  Nov 3, 2005

Hi Greg,

I have been paying attention to all the responses. Anything malicious I point out to those who can delete or modify them. Sometimes a post was not meant to be malicious but, since the poster's native language is not English, it comes out that way. In this case, it is best to contact the poster and modify their text.

So, I want to know which malicious responses you have received that was not deleted or modified.

This is a MODELER's site. This means that some want a shake the box kit while others look for a challenge. Some want to savor a build, while others savor the finishing aspect. And there will be those than run the gamut.

When someone constructively nit-picks a subject, they do a service to those who bought the kit (giving them a tweaks list from which they can pick and choose their own modifications) and to the company (who realizes that the consumer base includes free R & D assistance IF they are willing to go back and fix them).

Tristar got knocked around for their kits yet no one went to the degree that they have with Dragon's effort because few believe that a change would happen from the factory.

As long as no one states that a kit is trash because of errors without stating references or how it can be fixed, they should post without fear of someone telling them to 'get a life' or loony or some of the less desirable monikers out there. Personally, I do not mind rivet/bolt counter since I admit to being one. ;-)

Regards,
Saśl
