I could not agree with you more, we all need to be willing to accept criticism in a light hearted manner and view such comments in the positive spirit they were offered.

My only point was that all members of the forum have something to offer, from the newest member to the forum’s originator, novice to expert. My only fear is that when there are too many “ experts” on a particular forum, the group may tend to look at those individuals as sacred figures having to bless every idea and technique. Brainstorming could be stifled in fear that; I must run it by the experts before I give it a go.

Clearly the experts (no””) we currently have, as members of the forum are highly valued members whose input we all benefit from and who hopefully will always be willing to share their collective knowledge and insights. Pete
