I agree Jon. I was mentioning the search for many of the new aquarists questions, that have been on every board, six million times. They are important to the asker but how many other aquarists answer them. My point is, after answering them so many times, a point comes when some just dont respond anymore. On a huge board like RC, the mods of the beginner reefing forums answer many questions, as do many of the regulars, but the bulb are answered by aquarists who have started out not to long ago, and know the answers and dont mind posting them.
I actually though our new reefer forum, which was originally intended for articles only, seems to be going fine. Most questions are getting answered.
As I am on many boards and have many posts on some, I answer several e-mails or pm,s per day, most by new aquarists seeking advice. I always answer and some several times more. I dont mind that at all. I assume there are many regulars of the boards that are in the same situation.
