No one is stopping you from posting and talking about every day life in the coffee shop - no one. But if you think or feel that posting your hobby railway things in an appropriate thread so every one can enjoy them/it is asking too much then so be it.
I am the same - my wife has a room fer her hobbies and things and I have a room for mine so there are no arguments or complaints about what we have, or don't have, in or respective space :)
Well Louis, you too are missing the point.
It isn't what Willie (or anyone else posts) it is where they are posted. Not everyone comes in here to read about someone else's weather so they are missing out on seeing his excellent work, as well as others.
His work does deserve more attention -...
That is just one persons opinion and I was wondering where he was too. If he is in exile, why is he and who put him there for what reason? I think I have only seen him once or twice.
It is the preference Troy. People don't want to have to sift through page after page of stuff to find the hobby related items when they can go to the specific forum and what they want to know or see is right there.
As was pointed out to me, there is some stuff posted here that never gets seen...
Something has been brought to my attention for addressing concerning the coffee shop and the use there of.
It seems as though some people (quite a few actually) are using the this place as a "One Stop Shop for everything, INCLUDING specific hobby related things such as builds, design, painting...
