In Response To: Survey: Lose the "Top 10" ? (Spidey)

Spidey,

Many who post questions here are looking for answers. And we want the answers from those who have experienced what we are going through. We don't care if you answered somebody else's question, as long as we get our answer.

I guess what I'm trying to say is don't worry about that funny little statistic about number of posts. If someone asks a question, and you feel you have something to contribute in response, by all means do so.

If you are concerned about being on the "Top 10" list, I would offer a suggestion (and keep in mind that last winter I was matching Lee post-for-post on the CLC BBS). Give the less prolific an opportunity to repond before you jump in - it gives them the opportunity to share the knowledge they picked up while building (if they see you (or any of the top 10) have already responded, they may feel they have nothing more to add, and not post). And before you respond to a question, read the responses that have already been posted. If they adequately address the question and your response would only repeat the information that is already there, don't respond. But as I said before, if you have something to add, please do so.

Now all that being said, I plan to start my first strip-built kayak in September. I will probably be posting a lot of questions, and I look forward to your responses.

Ken
