I couldnt have said it better. That's the direction I was trying to tactfully go. You did so somewhat more directly. I agree somewhat on Fundy's opinion on polls, but we need to be mindful of our young people. If we're not careful with what we say, we'll give the hobby the "old fart" reputation. I'm all for having new blood. My 15 year old son is my model builder. I hate building models. I'm too lazy. We need to welcome young people with open arms. All of us were young once too, and just as indecisive and silly to grown ups looking at us. We need to be careful not to forget that. <br /> <br />[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by Lotus098</i> <br /><br />Monto3's profile says he is 11 years old, so keep this in mind when reading whatever he says. Seems he has a lot of growing up to do yet. Because anyone can start silly and endless polls I personally think they should be eliminated. <br /> <br /> <br />Do people like you wonder why there are less kids in the hobby today? Or do you just blaim the internet? Why should we get rid of Monto 3, why not teach him more? Tell him about the polls, I like the question of the day idea, so he had a bad question. This hobby needs all the kids it can get, Lionel was, as a model railroad should be a father-son hobby. Why don't we help him instead of grilling him? <br />[/quote]
