Model Cars Magazine Forum

I'm going to go out on a limb here and voice some thoughts about Model Cars Magazine.

1- In my opinion this forum we have is the best one out there and yes, there are others.

2- The Magazine that is put out, while notoriously late, is a top notch magazine full of information.

3- Perhaps some of the problems that some see with the Magazine and the Forum would go away if more people stepped up and offered to help.

4- Operating a web-site like this one os not easy or cheap. It takes time, effort and money.

5- Would an on-line MCM store help? I'm sure it would but then again there another responsibility added on to the few people that are trying to help.

Just some thoughts.

1. I would agree - a very nice site. A majority of the posters are interested in model cars and there doesn't seem to be a lot of trolls and other annoying online disturbances. There is a variety of builders and I really like that it is an international evdeavor. Looking at the "post your photo" thread, though, it appears to be a fairly male dominated hobby (my youngest daughter likes to build!).

2. Late, yes. I don't have a subscription though, so I just buy it when the hobby shop gets it. It is worth the wait.

3. Yes, I agree. This site and magazine are not some unaccountable, unconnected corporation. It is run by other enthusiasts. If you have a problem, how about suggesting or coming up with a solution?

4. Yes, and since the forum is free for users, there isn't a lot of profit incentive to keep it running. It is done for our benefit.

5. MCM store? Hadn't thought of that. Might be an interesting idea.
