Incoming is about *for me
1) congratulating someone on purchase
2) hopefully seeing a tastefully/well made shot

Guys! You can still get the attention you so desire, just in an "incoming" section, then people who want to wade through endless incomings to see your unique watch, can do so!

Meanwhile, the rest of us can be left with the more interesting topics in the general forum.

You mean like the stupid thread you started a while back if your T-shirt would scratch your watch?

Seems to me that the issue here is "attention" all right but it's you that craves it. Why else would anyone create a thread like this?

Well I vote that we also move all the "is it safe", "your Rolex and blah", "this or that" and dozens of repetitive threads to their own sections. Ah heck, why even bother with a general discussion section??

Some t-shirts do scratch the pcl's, depending upon the construction.

I'd rather see an incoming thread than this thread, that's for sure. I think I'll leave this one go look for a good incoming right now, in fact....Keeps me up to date on what my friends here are doin'.

I think is a bit unfair to jump up and down on Swaggy, he is entitled to an opinion in this world of free speech.

My opinion, for what it is worth, is that this forum is No1 for finding out answers to awkward questions and its friendliness does inspire one to become more interested in Rolex.

However everyone is entitled to an opinion and jumping on them just isn't on.

Regards

Mick

I like to be kept up to date with who's got what and when, personally and following the current trend. And also sharing the buzz and excitement of course.

Nobody forces you to open any thread here so how about ignoring incoming threads since they bother you so much. I don't think the forum is in danger of becoming obsolete or dull due to incoming threads. Perhaps you have missed the various "Is it safe" threads....Just saying.
