If you are reading a thread concerning something you know not much about and feel too intimidated to post, remember a question you may have is probably on the minds of who knows how many other members or lurkers and either they can't post or won't for one reason or another.
So the point is, at one time everyone here was totally ignorant about everything related to straights and wet shaving and we all had to learn from the bottom up. When I started these sites didn't exist and I wish they had.
So, ask question and fear not.No matter how many men you kill you can't kill your successor-Emperor Nero

What didnt i understand? All of it. Im no english teacher and far from being able to spell and write complete sentences, but that was beyond my understanding. Caps all over the sentence just thru me off big time.
Mike T. I feel sometime when a newbie asks a question and if the first guy that answers him is right on the money, than i will commend with agrement. I think this give the OP more convidence that the answer to his question was a good one and not just the ranting of one person. I do still think i need to hold my tongue more often but it so fun to post. Most the time im just trying to help. Other times ...
Harold, that was a great thing to say and i feel the same way. Hell, ive been accepted here and feel i have some good brothers that i feel close to and have never met. I hope to fix that some day. You folks are very close to me.
Im still only #38 on the list. Damn!
And thanks Mikeb52. I just dont know when to quit. Although honing kicked me to the curb a lot of times before i really understood what the hell i was doingLast edited by Gasman; 10-27-2018 at 03:17 AM.

IT's cool, Jerry...I have so many posts because I am ridiculously consistent.
I have learned a great deal in my membership here.
Point is to join in and get some posts in exactly like you have done. The fact you are a mentor here speaks volumes.
All about learning and having fun!

Thanked: 480Active membership likely ebbs and flows. Its certainly true that a lot of people got lost when the "palace" happened. I myself had no idea, as my links were all dead, so I just stopped looking. It was quite some time before I found the site running again.
I also dont post as often anymore, because honestly, I grew weary of it. The same questions asked, that had been answered a dozen times before, and the amazing responses are ignored because they are all too.... I dont know..lazy? unaware? .... to do a search.
That, and some members that just piss me off to no end, making me not even want to come in any more. From some acting like experts, to seeing members selling razors on ebay, feigning ignorance of condition, makes me despondent and lose faith in the "community" Are we truly gentlemen if our code of conduct only extends to members, and not the world around us?
I'll keep showing up sporadically, until I wind up in the "Hall of Remembrance" But I'm willing to bet my Riga that post counts dont always "count" (insert suitable emoji here)

Well, I appreciate you AND your posts, Steve!
You speak your mind, which is a good and knowledgeable one. Telling it as it is is important. You always do that.
Seems we are what we are now. Thanks for stopping in as you can. It helps us all.

A member selling on Ebay and acting like he knew nothing? I think that would piss me off too. I think id have to have a chat with him and his wrong doings. That is just not right!
As far as the Mentor bit, Tom. I think you guys just needed someone to clean the bathroom and st9ck the beer in the fridge. "Hey, let see if Jerry will do it".It's just Sharpening, right?

The information your looking for is already here, so all we need to to is pull it from a database that it is in , and organize it
so without know in the specific names given to the database table or its fields, I gave you pseudo code( an outline of what would happen using whatever programming language you decide to use.)Last edited by whoever; 10-27-2018 at 05:01 PM.
