Well, I've been here for some time now and have had several threads not replied to....it happens.I sum it up as the Mudcatters not being willing to say they don't know the "answer"...besides, why muddy the thread with "I don't know, but I wanted you to know I read your thread."....???
Visiting back and "refreshing" the threads is a good way to keep them active over a period of time....even refreshing it a month later can result in an answer.....
Haven't read the "Newcomer's guide" threads (since I can't think of the actual thread titles)....if there isn't already, perhaps there should be a list of "helpful hints" to posting threads....
