[AMD] endless commercials, etc.

I think what makes this board and group so good is that it serves a variety of different modelers.

I am not as interested in fan blade counts or even dihedrals all that much. I am interested in learning though, and there is a wealth of knowledge here. Part of that learning is what is new. I think that it is pretty cool that "power players" in our hobby take the time to post here. Mr. Hannant, TwoSix, etc. feel the board is worth their time to let us know what products they have that are new. That might seem like a no brainer, but is it? I'm sure they have alot of advertising decisions to make, and they choose here. Alot of other boards, sites, and lists don't get that.

Likewise, I learned about iOffer here. Never heard of it before. I may join, because I agree that Ebay has gotten way too impressed with themselves, and seem to have lost their way, seeing the customer (buyer or seller) as either the enemy, an ATM, or both. I don't want to be spammed, but I don't think that we are spammed. I think the mix of newb questions like mine, expert discussions, rivet counter discussions, ads, stuff for sale, and general banter is what makes this a great list.
