Default Re: Spirit of the forum, OT?

This is a great forum populated by knowledgeable and very generous people. The big difference here compared to other forums in that there is no condescension, all views are treated with respect and where wrong are gently put right. Because there is such good and consistent moderation I believe it causes us to consider what we are going to say before we type. Drifting off topic is so easy to do and probably the hardest human trait to avoid here.

I have visited everyday for many years and always find something interesting to read.
Despite not being a electronics professional I have contributed my 2 cents worth to a few posts but have never been put down by those who know better. Perhaps more due to the politeness of members who just bite their lip though!

This can be a lonely hobby, I find very few people in real life to talk to about it (especially the family) so the forum is a boon.

Thanks everyone,

Peter
