…for how long it will be before half of the 'chat' threads visible on the first page are folk asking about the pros and cons of this or that used estate or van. I know I have been guilty in the past but I think these posts are replicating or somesuch techno nightmare prospect.

I just joined the forum after reading some of the van threads and have been thinking about buying one but nobody mentioned the model I'm looking at.

Being a nube, have I unwittingly broken the rules? I've read the rules page and I couldn't see anything about not asking questions on the forum…

See now I feel bad. You have broken no rules. I now expect to be flamed for not being welcoming 🙁

HTH 😉

The title of this thread should be '**** off to some Car & Van Forum!'

How's that for welcoming?

I didn't fancy being that blunt.

it's all Hora's fault

Don't feel bad Mtbfix, I thought I was doing the right thing by not cluttering someone's "Show Me Your Van" thread with a question about a specific model.

However, the irony that you'd post a new thread specifically about people starting too many topics isn't lost on me… ;o)
