Test page?

Just an idea but on another forum which I visit only occasionally, they have a test page where posters can try out posting pics and videos without clogging up the real threads. this saves all the deleting and editing.

I can't see the system here being changed any time soon and of course many of you are used to the way it works but it is very confusing first of all.

So would a test page be a good idea or is that what the help section is for?

Re: Test page?

I think it's a brilliant idea!
Might turn out to be one of the most entertaining threads

Ha ha! Yes you could be right - just seeing how frustrated we all get.

LD there have been numerous test threads in the 'forum help' section but no matter how many we have or how much explaining is done new members will often fail to look and start a new one of their own .

What ! Do you mean our Judd, highly respected member who would never post anything untoward? Looks like there is a side to him that I haven't yet found.
