I've been attacked a few times now by certain Mudcatters but long enough after my first foray in to realise that they were in the minority and that that particular behaviour was the exception rather than the norm. I'm not sure what I would have done if I'd been attacked that way first time in.

It's a shame that the actual problem wasn't found out and that this lady is missing out on a great site and the chance to make so many good friends, all around the world. I've read the replies to a lot of the guest threads and seen the caring that mudcatters have for the problems of others and the degree of expertise that has been demonstrated. Let's hope that, based on her talk with Skipy, she might decide to check the site out again. Maybe that's what we have to do - act as 'ambassadors' for the site and show that, far from being exclusive, we welcome new people for the contribution they can make. I wouldn't have known about Mudcat if I hadn't been told by Keith A - and I've passed on the site address to others.
