It is a lost cause... A few people here just use this as their own

Actually, the topic is brought up more on a weekly basis.


In the end, the only comments you will receive are around "Well, YOU
seem to be posting off topic,


Oh, I see plenty of people who agree with the complaints about off
topic posts.


or What about YOU...."


Well, that's a valid question to the complainers. What have they done
to improve the group? How many on topic posts have they made before
complaining?



Very few if any. Most of the whiners want to suck down whatever
knowledge there may be here about boats, without donating anything they
know, assuming tney know anything worth knowing. Which is doubtful,
since they don't contribute, for the most part.
