For me it is the help and assistance and advice.
Most other forums show peoples work as here. But the praise here is different and gives confidence especially where experience is limited.
Where in any form in life can you pose a question before breakfast to take a peep after breakfast and find 4 or 5 methods of achieving a result. The time some have in providing very detailed answers also is a great plus.
There is also a tolerance here, mostly, that I have found on other forums lacking. That is to be able to put your point of view or way of doing things with out being torn to shreds because the other person thinks his way the only way and the best. That is very poor as it stops the flow of ideas as model makers become reluctant to participate. On other sites there seems to be a percentage who engage themselves in "rubbish making". Always best to say "my way" rather than "the way" and that is mostly what happens here.
There is also a "cheekiness" here and I like that. Seems to come from the club atmosphere here where a members character comes through and that fine line where cheek is taken as such and not rudeness. At the same time it is my opinion that a principle should be stated and not confused with tolerance.
So Si in all SMF is good for you breakfast dinner and tea. Plus of course we have you SI
