I wish I'd read this thread earlier before it was edited.

Funny I had the same conversation with a local member last night.

Its seems to be the way with these types on online interest forums. They go through a cycle of noise and burnout after a time.

When we joined there were only a few hundred members. It was new, interesting and fresh and there was quality content. Then there was the 2000 mark and now I am told 7K members. There is only so much that can be discussed and posted by veterans and they seldom post frequently now.

I think that sums it up.

I view the summer of 2004 as the turning point. I will admit that right now, as of this moment, I simply couldn't have envisioned it having gotten this tragically bad. The good thing is that I have finally reached that point where I just don't care anymore and that's a real nice burden to be out from under.

The only way to get back to what you had is to make it members only - probably with a paid membership to keep out the riffraff.

The hardest part of THAT decision is deciding who is riffraff.
Is it the novices?
Is it the wannabe's?
Is it the flippers? They DO have the budget ...

DIY only??

Everest Buyers only??

Hard choices - I wish you well with that ...

No interest Heather. It is what it is. Those who can't deal with it can leave. It's just an Interent forum. There are maybe a dozen people who yammer on it daily and a couple dozen who show up to witness the spectacle and that's about it. Everyone else has come and gone with their questions answered. There are far more people who use this site for it's content than those who use it as a social outlet.

Giskard, let me ask you this, and I mean this seriously! Do you ever feel as if you gave away too much information?

Oh absolutely! Most definitely! But as it was explained to me, in the scheme of things, in the big picture, it won't end up mattering. And I think that someday more will be revealed.

If ignorance is bliss, having all the answers must be miserable indeed.
