Hobby-related discussions belong here. Let's keep these discussions on-topic, thought-provoking, and more importantly...entertaining!
Tracy's post is most certainly provoking some thoughts and is very entertaining!
As for threAds, your welcome to point them out but may I direct you to

*The FINAL Word On ThreAds
Although there is nothing within the *Forum Guidelines* that expressly forbids them; ThreAds, by their very nature, have become quite controversial. Some staff members, myself included, were at times not sure how to handle them.Well, that ambiguity is no more.The owners have spoken and the following is their position concerning ThreAds...

Don't move it. Don't point or suspend the poster. Don't warn the member in any way...PM or in a post. If someone RTMs a post referring to it as a threAD, simply let them know that we do not take action on those types of posts and if they want to let the OP know in a respectful way, go ahead.....but again, I do not want any warnings coming from staff unless instructed to do so.
With that said, if the members want to express their distaste on a thread that they feel is blatant advertising, let them...within reason. Just don't let it get out of hand, meaning insults or other violations of forum guidelines.
Thanks for your cooperation,
St. C
So from this point forward I will handle all ThreAds as well as complaints against them as St. Chris as described.I know there will be some that will disagree with this position but it is official policy so any resistance at this point would be, as the Borg would say, futile.If you have any questions, please let me know.
