    I cannot understand why these blogs are being posted to a discussion forum.
    This latest being simply an advertorial.

    It would be different if the forum was encouraged to discuss the content of the blogs but that is not the case.
    Any reply is met by a message that the blogger cannot see the reply.
    That is understood but forum members can see the replies and duly respond to them.

    We could of course leave the forum and respond on the blogger's site but such replies do not reach the forum, so we are left with a one sided point of view.
    That rather defeats the object of the forum.
    Cheers

      Guy,
      A number of these blogs contain useful snippets of information, such as new databases being made available, changes to websites, guides to FH research etc. Yes, there are the occasional "adverts" but in the main we feel there is a worthwhile amount of "news" which could be useful to the members.

      What we don't have control over is what comes through on the first post of each thread - and unfortunately on this thread you need to click on the link to be taken to the full blog content.

      There is nothing to stop any member posting on these threads and initiating a discussion or, if they prefer, going to the blog page and leaving comments there (as i have done freqently in the past!)
