Hey Slippn, just trying to be civil. ;)

Nigel,
You're not the only one to mention the past. There was a guy on here a few months ago mentioning how back in the day it was a much different environment. People contributed and it was much more of a community feel.

I will admit that I would have liked to have been here when it was more of a community ran site. HOWEVER, I know that I'd be nowhere as far along in my ability if it was. So for that I'm grateful that it's a structured pay site.

It would be nice if this place still felt like a guitar community of friends and not just a bunch of people here to lean how to play guitar.
