with that being said, to instantly swoop in on him and post what you did w/o even so much as any help is more than discouraging. and this isn't the first time at all. personally, i feel you almost sit back and wait for someone to do it so you can issue the ticket and collect the fine.

im also saying that stuff like that, particularly the wording used, runs people off not encourages them to stay, contribute or get involved. something i would think most pre-war collectors are in need of as of late.

now i don't know him, but if he's a habitual offender then i offer my apology and rebuttal.

however if not, i can only imagine his or any other non regular/"newbies" initial feelings towards ever posting "again" to n54.

edit: and to answer your question: to help a fellow collector. plain and simple.

point taken.
