But you know what the problem is.

People see those posts when they look at a particular surname list.

If they're looking at a particular surname list, they never ever ever see the helpful hints posts on the general TTF board.

We can post 'em til we're blue in the face, but unless someone steps outside the Plato's cave of his/her particular surname interest, we're whistling in the wind.

Ditto for any suggestions submitted to site management that posters be presented with a short list of tips and rules when they compose a new thread -- which is where these tips and the rules *really* need to be set out -- of course.

no harm in nudging ... ;)

Paul -- if you do that -- I know, I've looked at old threads and failed to notice how old, too -- just go back and edit your post, or add another post, to say you noticed the date and have PMed the person who posted the message.

That'll save getting helpful posts/PMs from multiple helpful people. ;)

I just ignore them as i don't think people realise that when they reply to a thread through the name summary it will bring the thread to the front of this page & the same will happen on the History board
