I try to visit once a week. I do have a real job and a real life to live. But I just fractured my knee cap in a car accident the other day so I will be more often until it heals.

Modular railroading at its best!
If it has an X in it, it sucks! And yes, I just had my modeler's license renewed last week!

At work, during lunch and afternoon breaks, five days a week. Can't get here on the weekends since I don't have internet at home (we just graduated to running water last week [(-D]). It really helps since I've just about driven the LHS owner crazy with questions. Now I get to hurl em this way! [:-,]

Every chance I get. I love reading what others have to say. I do need to say, though, that sometimes my replies to others posts come off as being argumentative, but in fact, are not. I am curious by nature, and always like to hear what others think, good or bad, pro or con. I think most here are great!! I have received lots of help and advice to get me going in the right direction. Kudos!!

Try to get on here whenever I have some freetime. Some days, not at all, others, 2, 3,4 or more times a day. As for posting, whenever I find something I want to post on.

Hunter - When we met in January of 2000, you were just a 6 week old pup who walked his way into this heart of mine as the only runt in the litter who would come over to me. And today, I sit here and tell you I am sorry we had to put you down. It was the best thing for you and also the right thing to do. May you now rest in peace and comfort. Love, Dad. 8 June 2010

I love you and miss you Mom. Say hi to everyone up there for me. Rest in peace and comfort. Love, John. 29 March 2017

Yup, after almost 10 months, I think it's safe to say I LIVE HERE![:0][swg]


And you haven't had to pay the rent either, have ya?[;)]


No Ferg, but I have gotten my renewal notices for my subscriptions, so I guess the rent is due.[swg]

I'm back!

It's interesting though to read through these old threads and realize how many "Fallen Flag" members have gone by the wayside.
People that posted on a daily basis have dropped off the face of the earth.

Did they join FA? (Forums anonymous)[:(]



I must say once a day is not enough anymore, so count me in as well.
I also wonder who ERROR ERROR is [:o)]
it seems he posts post a lot in these old topics! [:p]

I voted once a day, then realized I was lying through my teeth! Sometimes I come back 4 or 5 times, especially if a hot topic has been posted. I like the forum. I like the people on it, I've recieved private e-mails from some of them and I like that. I like the sharing of ideas, I even like it when I make some way-out statement and someone comes back at me. Hey, it means we're at least observing and THINKING, right? It's a great hobby, and though we may have our differences, we still have the kind of camaraderie that is fast disappearing from other aspects of contemporary life. So I say--LONG LIVE THE FORUM! AMEN!

It probably averages a couple times a day. Certain times of the year I am unable to partake, due to other distractions.

I'm kind of hit and miss. I try to visit once a day, and will do so regularly for a long time. Then I'll get busy with work, family, etc and may miss a week or even a month. My third child was born last June and I probably didn't get on here more than 10 times in all of June, July, and August. I'm gettin back into it now, though.

I like to check in a couple times a day if at all possible. I really enjoy reading through the posts and have gotten a lot of information that I can use. The photos are really a big help also. Thanks to everyone. Joe Voisin Sr.

At least four times a week. Sometimes more than that. There's a lot of good modeling advice on this forum. I also like the polls and other non-modeling posts.

I visit THIS forum once every week or two. I visit the layout building forum once or twice a week. Most of my time is spent on forums at www.mailleartisans.org because that is my primary hobby. Don't get me wrong, though, I LOVE trains, I just love the chainmaille more.
