Some fair points given - I know Jon has talked about some of this before.

I probably check the board once or twice a week. However, I am not a user or collector of anything really considered vintage, so most postings would not be that useful for me.

That said, I do scroll through Reddit fairly regularly, as a Redditor on a number of topics, but really, when it comes to modern pens there really isn't much to know about most of them, IMHO of course. So, it's convenient to skim.

It is what it is I guess, and certainly the younger uptakers are solidly focussed on modern stuff from what I've seen.

As Jon alluded to, change is inevitable.

Edited to add, because I am old and forgetful, best wishes for the end of this year and the start of a shiny new one!
