I think the group of regular posters often change over a period of time too. I don't come on to CF as much as I used too. Need to leech some bandwidth to get online nowadays.
I often look on CF. Theres a lot of new members who are the regular posters now. I think also a few people have moved on. Giancarlo was a regular poster, although never the best of buddies, he had a lot of valid points at times (And made sure he got it through to you - often leading to a blooded battlefield, a few casualties and wounded and, ultimately, his own downfall) - and I miss that.
I don't think you, Jac006 post as much now either. Perhaps I'm wrong and looking in the wrong places though.
Also, I mean no offence what so ever, but a lot of shallow people come here and realise that there are a lot of young (say 13-16) year olds and this puts them off. I know this is no measure of ability or intelligence because I don't think I have changed that much on the computer side of abilities and knowledge since I was that age either - just updated as time has passed.
People look down on this and sometimes looks down on CF - which is the wrong reasons - we seem to all contribute collectively to a good technical support forum as far as I'm concerned.
Sometimes though, I do get annoyed with one or two 'younger ones' replies. Still a few things to learn - thats life though. LOL.
I think thats why Delta is never online much here now. Only when I need backup, lol, he gets called in.
