    Compliments to BYOG

    Honest feedback is;

    This website is so distracting me from;

    A - instead of building my RedPine lapsteel - im lookin at things like pearl inlay, paints, carpentry builds, hardware advice etc etc, fully gettin ahead of myself.

    B - now i want to also buy a pitbull kit which, i shouldn't as i need to finish/spend money on house projects i 'd started last year.

    and

    C - ive hardly played any of my guitars for the last week due to points A & B

    really just sayin , im enjoying the website forum a lot !

    regards Guvna

    Fully agree Guvna as it is like a black hole we get sucked into and an all consuming disease called GAS or BAS for the low enders

    Yep, this certainly is a dangerous place!
    I'm an acoustic guy, and I've had plans to do an Acoustic guitar building class for a couple of years now, but due to some issues at the time, things haven't lined up for me.
    To get me through, I decided to look at some kit guitars, and wound up here.
    The forum is stuck with me now!!

    Yes i agree but i have one complaint about this forum,

    And that is i spend at least an hour a day checking it out but its not enough time to check out everyones posts. So they keep accumalating and i feel bad that im not reading them. A real dilemma with no solution in sight. I mean everyone deserves praise and help if possible. So i wanna send out a big thanks to all the regulars who seem to get a post to everyone. Goodonya guys.

    Wow, what a way to show your lack of commitment Nitro!!!
    Only an hour a day??!!
    Haha, I'm not going to say how much I spend on here, just in case the Boss is monitoring my internet access at work!!!

    You probably have no idea how much your boss can see if he wants to.

    Web browsing - not a challenge
    Email traffic - not a problem
    Email attachments - not a problem
    Contents of your hard drive - still no problem

    I did jury duty a few years ago and the email traffic of a lady in Sydney to a school shop in Sydney was picked up by the VIA.

    Nothing on the internet is confidential to those who need to know
