Why bother posting?

Blimey! Like calling a spade a spade do you? Bet there are a lot on here feel the same way. You either beat them to it or they weren’t quite brave enough to say it.

Is it because he hasn’t got anything better to do.

Must admit that I try to resist his provocative daily new threads.

If someone was regularly posting thought provoking threads on eminent topics and encouraging good discussion, and the tone within was more uplifting or inspiring I dare say many a forum member would welcome it.

Instead the usual theme being the end of the world is nigh gets a bit old.

Negativity and bad news are contagious though do help market many boatloads of newsprint. Coming here and seeing people discuss their successes, shiny toys, beautiful cattle or fine looking crops or incredible views or inspiring projects I feel offers a lot of relief from the daily grind.

This modern 'Negativity' word use is a bit of a distraction imo. there needs to be balance and reality (honesty?) allowed in at times .not just shiny kit perfect work and show stock.... or else thats wrong..surely
