Non-conformity is the spice of life mate.
The nice thing about a forum like this, is that folks can generally do what they please, within reason. This assumes the following:
- Forum rules are followed
- General courtesy is offered
- Pictures or it didn't happen EDIT (except for Roth, we make allowances for his lack of camera phone :lol: )
It's the same with the "Show off your..." threads. Some folks will use 'em, and others won't. I'm guessing that some posters like to start their own threads so that they can find them easily, and not have the dialogue around their pipe/collection/cellar/tobacco buried in a different or catch-all thread.
It isn't personal, no one thinks that they are "too good to post on this thread". They're just doing what they do, and we thank 'em for it just the same.
