I think that this is going to become a GREAT forum.
I like the subscriber only idea. Keeps the trolls outside !

Yes, that aspect does have it's advantages.
And obnoxious vendors and shrills away and no banners and ads.
I will also work to make a laudable sticky section full of old post, new post and the
link section from hell.
I'm not out to make it a forum for the masses, just you folks.
So Anyone that wants to translate the articles into their native tongues/languages are free to do so here.
This same rule applies to post.
You can write in English and then translate it into Spanish and then post both text.
So
Spanish.............
Then English............
Etc on the same post.
You can open a translation window and bounce back and forth easily to do this and write simple! The simple text translates much easier!!!!
If you translate it back to English and it comes out fairly decent, then you can be assured it has fairly good translating text.
This is pretty cool really.

It'll get much better as the soft improves.
I hope to have Japanese on here if the software can support the characters.
I fully encourage that so that other folks who do not speak English as well can join in as a member as well. I would like to utilize the translation engines as much as we can and build up several foreign languages archived posting as well.
With a more limited group, this aspect will become invaluable to the world, not just the English speaking people.
That is a very important goal to me.
I am not interested in having the same type of sectional topics for the forum.
There will be traditional things as well, but I try to find things that better support this hobby from science and explain things much better than past attemps.
I encourage anyone and all to join in, I like discourse and trying to consider ideas and what and why they work.
We all learn through that path and then in turn, can help others.
More folks with this type of knowledge, the more folks that will have planted tanks.
