Paul: Yup, now that I have been able to find the post again, I can answer.. Been there done that, don't know how many times I have emailed Kim and the staff asking/begging them to allow the link to function. I make absolutely no money from that site at all. It takes hundreds and hundreds of hours just to maintain it, and took 10 times that to do the work to upload the info.... I do it cause I like it and cause I want to help others, sort of a payback to all those wonderful people in this hobby that have helped me get Ellie up and running and allowing me to have as much fun as I do. I do manage a workaround at times, as long as there is an email link then I can send the the info. However, now she is using the safemail assistant so I cannot send my html/phpbbs version of the welcome wagon text which has all the links. I think this is taking censorship a bit too darn far. I understand that this may have become her income generation unit, but... as others have said, forums such as this are supposed to aid its users. Kim and the staff will only hurt themselves with this new policy. In the real world at least the one I live in - people who are happy with a site WILL AUTOMATICALLY refer other people on other forums to that site. It becomes an option so that a user has choices. I sure hope that they review this policy. I am not afraid of spam. I get it by the tons - hundreds and hundreds of spam and crap email by the week, and that is only what makes it through the filters. Very easy to deal with... hold the control key down, highlight all the crap, right click and click on DELETE... poof it is all gone. I am a big boy, I don't need people to censor my mail. I know she means well, but this is getting slightly ridiculous..

Today's Featured Article -
A Question for Dads This recent topic from the Tractor Talk discussion board is being highlighted because it is an awesome display of the caliber of individuals that have made this site their own. The young person asking questions received positive feedback and advice from total strangers who "told it like it is" with the care many reserve for their own kids. The advice is timeless... so although it isn't necessarily antique tractor related, it will be prominently displayed in our archives to honor those who have the courage to ask and those who have the courage to respond in an honest, positive manner.
