Role of SRP BST discussion thread cont.

[The Topher]

Guys like I said somewhere in hear We have beat to death what the BST needs to be. I also Said we are looking at different alternatives for the frequent sellers that do not have a web page but really are selling like a vendor. We are also looking at making the Vendor section more usable for our Vendors
Will everyone be happy no but were shooting to try.
So if we could let this one go till we get are work done then we can go from their.

Well then I guess I won't way in since I have made my feelings known in the past except to say that I have seen the quality of resto's go up immeasurably since I came here 6 months ago right before the cut off date for the crash. Part of the reason I think for that is that some people like myself have been able to build their skill and pass on their work to upgrade their equipment and buy new razors to work on using this forum. Now I am so swamped that nothing has even made it to BST in ages. Yet there are those who are just making money and not helping or advancing technique or knowledge. Often they are not even providing reasonable sharp newby razors. This is a detriment. I have no good ideas as to how to keep the first part with out having the second part that has not already been mentioned. All I would say is that if you do something that damages our ability to to advance our skills and the quality of restos then you would lose things like my polishing techniques or gssxgun's tumbler, the adjustable pins, the epoxy resin and carbon fiber scales, and the new rash of people trying to make their own razors that I think is comming. The razors from this development must go somewhere and it takes alot of practice to get that right. Just be careful how you limit things cause you might stunt the development of some very skilled people here.

Wait... Actually i did think of something. I had a forum where the off topic forum didn't add to the post count. Make BST not count and we will see who helps the community or not.
