Hello and Welsome, SS.
Many years ago I was involved in a forum like this (providing free technical support in a different industry).
My time there was short lived because - oh my godfather - so many of the Newbies were a Nightmare!
They'd open a membership with a 'your rules don't apply to me' attitude and then the 'you-do-it-for-me' demands would start.
Like a party of 10 year olds who'd drunk WAY too much red cordial.
Quite frankly, I don't know how and where the IOPList Admins and Mods find the time nor the energy to maintain this forum.
I have nothing but respect for them.
I've only been a member for a short while, but just occasionally I've seen similar antics by the 'young & foolhardy' and thought "Uh-Oh! This is unlikely to end well for you..." Luckily for the rest of us, the bosses are quite familiar with the Delete and the Banned buttons - so the trouble quickly 'vanishes' leaving the rest of us to enjoy a safe and peaceful environment.
You will have probably read that it is like a 'family' in here - it only takes a few weeks before you realize how true that is.
I hope you find what you are after.
There's a difference between having an opinion and having an informed opinion.
