Hi all.

I keep reading new forum members saying "been lurking here for ages" etc.

So...



THIS FORUM NEEDS YOU!
Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.

A combine would get us a few more - and I am sure Nik would be able to get one.

Blessed is the man with nothing to say, who cannot be persuaded to say it!

If people are happy "lurking" then good on them. Enjoy the enjoy the banter or ignore it, pick up useful information or grind your teeth in frustration at people's ignorance, be inspired or demoralised by the painted figures and conversions.

Of course, if you WANT to join in then go for it, this is one of the most relaxed, friendly, welcoming and non-judgemental forums I've ever been on.

Without the lurkers, those of us who post regularly would be shouting into the void.

Was trying for a little friendly encouragement; I hope it didn't come across as anything else  :)

I'd encourage anyone who wanted to to join in, nothing wrong with a little encouragement in that area getagrip, just don't want those happy lurking to feel they're viewed as "doing it wrong." :)

That would be because my post was inspired mainly by Luddite, ianrs54 and my experience on other forums :)

It wasn't intended as a rebuttal of your post but rather an amplification.

The written word is such a blunt instrument :(
