Not trying to reorganize the world just content to view things on a sensible level but still keeping people informed about "the big picture" with attention being drawn to current events.
Threads are interesting and informative, I've been pleasantly surprised about the in depth knowledge some of the contributors have.
Like NR, I like to contribute but more importantly LEARN.
Something I have been doing a lot of thanks.
Not a lot of abuse or swearing helps enormously.
The occasional soap box debate but that adds to the fun.
A hell of a lot better than some UK forums where your opinions have to fit in with the "self appointed senior member element" and you have to tow "the party line".
Marks out of 10, a good 11!
Got a PM this morning from a newish member who says the thing he likes best about SUK.NET is its nothing like the other UK forums !!! read into that what you will. ( I left out her other rather erm expressive opinions about tother places to be polite)

Oh, an you lot of retrobates too!
Dont worry bout that BP and me have been banned from loads of places and overall we are in no way any worse off by not being on those forums, indeed I find having to work hard and seek out quality prepper forums instead of the glitzy all show types that google searchs direct you to I end up much better off.. I find I'm totally awed by the likes of Paul, Light Speed, Time Lord, Nemasis etc whose expertise is outstanding, freely given and well researched and no dick heads stiffling debate when it gets contentious. Mind you if SD or Nemesis did ban me from this forum I would be gutted
