Is it just me or have some peoples build diaries just gone compleatly down hill.
Some people have excelent ones but others are so disapointing as they havent even bothered to put any acctual build pictures on just some ofnthe tools they are using and then turned it into a general discusion for three pages of when is it going to start and what day they recieved there issues and what free gifts came with it how disapinting

And some who have just put up one or two photos and nothing else .
I do understand that alot of people have a very busy calendar and things beond uor control do occur but some just decide to stop the build altogether.

And before anyone says well why not start your own the reason is simply i have got to far on in the build to put any on and a few mistakes that im trying to address.

writing as someone who has a diary, i know i don't out too many pictures up, but the way i do mine is to build away happily and once i have completed a big stage, then i put some pictures up.

the main reason for this was that i joined the forum when i was well into my victory build so felt that having done such a large proportion before i put my first pictures up that i shoud continue that way with some pice every now and again.

when i started mt san fran diary i had every intention of putting pics up at every stage, but being the type of person i am i get caught up with the build and the photo's take a back seat.

so the next diary i put up will hopefully be the akagi, and i am going to try and post pics a bit more regularly.

i know what you mean about some of the diaries, i have been guilty myself of treating some others diaries as a bit of a chat room, but have apologised for doing so.......see riff raffs titanic build..... but at the end of the day if someone has a diary up and others then take it over what can the diary author do about it.

glad to hear it stan,we hear what you say.

Hey fellow Yorkshireman.

I've put pictures up on my build, and tried to add as much help and advice as possible.
Personally I have a few reasons for not continuing my build diary, 1. Im going to do a similar thing to Warthog and add loads of detail and extras, Im going to give this a real go from the start, and 2. I moved into my first house yesterday, so with the missus, obviously, the build takes a back seat, and decorating takes a front seat.
I aim to get up and going within the next 6 months, but with everything that needs doing it can change.
Thinking about it, because of the details I plan to add, waiting until the end of the build diary, Tomick is running, may be the best idea for me to make notes of certain things.

Having said that, I won't be complaining to anyone that they have not updated there's as if peoples lives are as hectic as mine (working shifts and having other stuff on!) I understand that its not as simple as may seem. I do like to encourage people (Come on Warthog :D ) to do theres as its interesting though.

SchueyKings build is a great thread (And all others updated on a reg basis) and they are the main reasons the build diarys are great to read, I guess most others who plan to add detail will come as time passes. Im glad SA have got the build as this forum will keep going for as long as poss.

I'm not bashing mate I promise!!!! Just giving my thoughts as Im sure you understand.
