John,

Why do I ask? Mostly just curious. I also would like to improve the BLOGs I have for other modelers.

Hi Mike,

I hope that you didn't think that I was being facitious, as that was not my aim and I did actually think that you had a reason for asking.

I had wondered if people felt that maybe their effort was not appreciated, in adding their BLOG, to the site, or that maybe if people did not take the time to respond, that others might question as to the worth of taking the step of starting a BLOG and showing their skills?

Personally I enjoy the BLOGs and get a great deal of enjoyment out of reading about the highs and lows of a project. I hope that when I can get my mind out of the troughs of life after suffering a breakdown, that I can join in myself.

To me things like the BLOGs, help to make Track-Link, the vibrant community that it is, which in truth I only really found because I was looking for things to help me fill some of the time that I spend alone. So I suppose you could say that it is theraputic in my case, as previously I had never really considered engaging in any of the forums.

I like the fact that there is none of the elitist attitudes that you can find in other places, where unlike here, some of the critism that is leveled is not very constructive and can put people off sharing.

I think that any help you or others can offer to encourage more of the membership to join in the BLOGs is very worthwhile.

Regards,

John
