To be fair to Adrian, his products in 4mm and 7mm scales under the ABS brand (which may not be familiar to many) do show his track record and that he can 'walk the walk' as well as 'talk the talk'. He is retired, or semi-so; I don't believe he (or anybody for that matter) should have to set up in competition to gain entitlement to be critical.GWR_fan wrote: If you can do better, as you obviously believe that you can given the amount of self praise you have bestowed on yourself in previous postings, then why not manufacture and release a better product for those few "discerning modellers".
I really do hope they don't; in my view it would be a sledgehammer to crack a walnut and with the greatest of respect to the mods here, there's more to moderation than locking threads. If the repetitive nature of Adrian's postings is deemed a problem (and remember, I am quite sympathetic to that view), then it should be Adrian that is dealt with. Locking the thread would simply penalise those posters who can discuss the model in more moderate ways.I really do hope that the moderators lock this topic as your continual criticism is not constructive.
