If not, people will not feel welcome, they won't participate, and they'll find somewhere else to go. Eventually the board will stagnate and die...

I have confidence we won't stagnate. We average 100+ new, registered members per month and have for several years running. I merely pointed to the alterations section because there is great info there. That being said, I agree with Barry in that no one should fear asking any hobby related question. That's what the board is here for, essentially.
