	This is the post on FB Bruce How Experts at what?Ticking the thread as solved when most of them have not been,or if they have it has been it seems mainly to have been done by other members excluded from that board who have sent the posters the info by PM. If you recognise those 10 as the best in the business because they volunteered first,then all I ca...n say is that anything I post for help will NOT be going on that board.

	The first post on FB by him. In my opinion what is happening on GR site at the moment is just farcical.Recognise the members who put in the hours to help people and make the site what it is?No you have not,you have taken 10 members out of many tens and put them on a board that no one else can add to. There is even one person on there who had to have it expained in great detail how to return and answer on their own post only last year,so where does that person gain the skills from so suddenly to be one of the "Official Advisors" in front of and above the members who have been the backbone of GR since it began please? I have already seen people being given wrong advice,wrong info and NO info on it. And this is no doubt going to be your next slogan...Ask the experts on our Help Clinic Board. Experts at what?

	I think what they should have done is....give everyone who they consider a helper a star, not the ones who can c&p a census but the ones who actually solve a puzzle on a regular basis. Not free access to their sites but perhaps let them off with 6 months subs as a thank you. Then when a newbie see's they are being helped by someone who perhaps knows what they are talking about. Last night someone was looking for a marriage or death for someone born in 1890, The first two replies she got was every single person with that name that had died from 1837 - 1947 ??? what sort of help is that? ja...x
