What's with the idea of segregating the teens? They look at things differently but that is not neccesarilly bad. In my eyes there is no distinction between a teen modeler and one that has decades of experience, except experience. What would be the use of THIS forum if teens had their own forum. Who would we share our knowledge and experience with? Each other? But we are experienced right? I don't give two hoots about getting stars but if someones does, they are more than likely to have read the postings and still gained knowledge. I don't know anything about the whole star business, do you get a free loco for getting two stars or get a free subscription for getting one? I didn't think so, so what's the stink about. I'm almost 30 and if there is a teen forum made to eliminate this whole star fuss and the attempt to keep them in the amateur status than I'll take this site off of my favorites lists altogether. <br /> <br />Think about it. Who taught you about this hobby? Probably an older person with experience or read an article by an older person. <br /> <br /> I'll probably get a thrashing for this reply but so what. It sounds like we should be putting our minds to educating these younger ones than possibly they would replying with sound advice and helpful ideas and suggestions. <br /> <br />No offense intended to anyone seriously. Let's just think about how the next generation is going to learn. <br /> <br />Only my opinion, <br />Jeremy
