I have noticed that around six of todays posts have included incomplete members names.  This rule was made due to confusion over who these posts are directed at.  As you can imagine there are more than one Paul, John, Mark etc on the forum so using the full name of members is needed. 

Obviously there will be cases where some members names will be shortened for example Riding With The Angels to RWTA, as this shortened name is unique this is acceptable, however if a new member joins with these initials than you will be required to use the full name.

For those members that have been using the forum regularly if this rule is ignored then any future posts that do not include the full member's name will be deleted.

As in the previous post in this thread, please can people use the complete Forum name if a reply is directed at someone, Thank you.

Again, can people please use full names!!!

Can we not quote photographs in posts please, it clogs up the thread and you end up with the same photograph repeated!  A description of the previous photograph is all that is needed
