    I also think that inactivity on the forum should move a buyer down on the list. WAY DOWN. More activity should move you up! I also agree that questions should be answered by the buyer. While many of us could answer the question, we may not know about a recent development that would change the answer.

    There are what, maybe ten?, buyers that are very active on the forum, answer many questions and just provide great information in general. I have been asked why I send some of my material 500-1000 miles to someone that I have never met in person. My answer is that I got my information on how to do what I do best, which is collect material and break it down, from buyers that participate in this forum. If I am to receive tips on how to be more successful and provide a buyer with material the way they like to receive it, not only do I get paid more, the buyer makes more money. Thus when I support them, they have more reason to support the forum with more information. The participation by a buyer in this forum is just another method of advertising for them. Some have used this to their advantage and have done very well with this forum as a source for business and some have not. The ones that have are the ones that I am willing to support. (now if I haven't sent you anything, don't take that as a slap in the face, we may still do business in the future!)
