Dsg, I am sensitive to your post since I am one of those 5 tractor experts that has little knowledge about tractors. I acquired my 5 tractors by occasionally commenting on things I do know about so it is usually not about tractors. I hear lots of people here make this same complaint. They don't want to hear from people that don't have "real" experience. On the other hand there is occasionally enough tractor knowledge you might gather from other folks here to answer a quick question for a "passer-by". Sometimes it may be good to say ANYTHING when things slow down. And I think it is up to the reader to decide what information is useful.
Even if I knew the world about tractors I don't know that I could speak full time about them as many here can. I can only answer the same question maybe 50 times then I begin to get tired. I usually change my job every 5 years at my company - I am now on my 7th job. I think the thing that binds people together here is not only tractor knowledge, but a sense of comraderie that comes from the fact that we all own tractors. It usually takes a special type of person to like that type of connection to the earth. But as we have found out there is no limit to the political or religious leanings of us all.
But I'm jis rambling on in the middle of the night . . .

Thanks for mentioning that; I do recall the reason for the pointless topic now. Man that was some time ago...
Crunch, how well put your thoughts are even for the middle of the night!

Dennis, the "email (username)" function doesn't work for me, I even tried logging out and back in, all I get is a message that says I have to be an Admin. to use it.
Is it me or a code problem?
Best of luck.

ncrunch, I admit this is not alwasy correct but in my business an expert is a person from out of town with a brief case.
Many of my questions don't need an expert, why even EW has help me out a time or two. Don't think DSG meant it quite the way it reads. At same time sure am glad for the true "experts" here who give so much.

Murf,
I think I have fixed this now. Let me know.
Do the moderators want to get emailed copies of any moderator email?

It works now Dennis, thanks.
Maybe there's a way to make a sort of Moderators Forum where the messages to and from the mod.'s all show up, that way any of us can have a peek without getting a stream of emails on a regular basis?
I'm thinking it should be reasonably easy to have the system just ghost every PM there, rather than have it BCC each email to all the moderators.
What does everyone else want? Ideas?
Best of luck.

Heck if I know, this is all new to me. I was thinking on the lines of something like a "Notify Moderator" link. This way every moderator will get info on any reported bad posts.
The way it is now is if Murf is out of town and someone was to notify him of a bad post, no moderator know about it.
You could leave it the same but just add a Notify Moderator link...
Moderator Edit
Email Murf
Notify Moderator
Or you could substitute the Notify Moderator for Email...
Moderator Edit
Notify Moderator
Whatever you all decide on is fine with me

But I'm jis' TRYIN' to say

I like Murf's idea for keeping us all in the "loop" so to speak as long as there is some sort of notification method to flag us that new information is available. If it comes as individual e-mails, so be it. I doubt they will be so many in number as to be cumbersome.
My e-mail link works now too! Thank you Dennis.
