[QUOTE="Joan, post: 2390532, member: 5398"]I apologize, I shouldn't have used the words "immediately when asked," because I meant to refer to the question about why Ashley couldn't have posted a front view photo at the same time she posted the other photos. I understand now there is some problematic history here that I wasn't aware of, and am concerned that I may not understand the etiquette that is expected for this forum since I don't post very often. I don't want to get myself in trouble in the future, so I looked through most of Ashley's posts that started in October last year, and did notice that she didn't say thank you on many of the posts or do a final response after the last person responded. Maybe it would help new people if "The Rules" included a section on proper etiquette, such as (1) before starting a thread, do at least some research including searching key words on Google and explain what research you've already done; (2) always include photos of at least the front, sides, top, bottom, and signatures (if relevant) on the item in question, (3) after the last person responds, always express appreciation for the information everyone provides, whether helpful or not; (4) don't share personal details of your life that aren't relevant to the forum; and (5) if you feel that another member isn't being as respectful or appreciative as they should be, send them a personal message explaining your concerns.[/QUOTE]
