Hi there.
Just as a bit of background for your information; for newbies, there may be a delay in the thread or post you add to the forums.
This is regrettable, but a necessary step, as the Mod/Admin team have to ensure the thread / post complies with the rules and approves / amends / rejects the thread / post accordingly. (also that it isn't spam)
It hasn't been 'lost', so please don't presume that it has, and keep duplicating your words - we will deal with it asap.
Whilst on the subject of creating threads / posting, please take a moment to consider where your issue is most appropriately placed; requesting info regarding tyres in the Electronics section, for example, just means it is less likely to receive a reply. Same goes with tagging onto an existing, yet unrelated, thread. If it is important to you, make it visible.
Also (whilst on my soapbox), please be patient when waiting for a reply; it is possible that your question is so unique, no-one has encountered it before, or that some of us, actually have a life outside the forum that sometimes takes precedence. A polite and eloquently asked question is much more likely to receive a similarly-worded reply, rather than some abrupt, brusque text-speak.
These are all small changes in isolation, that when combined, will make the forum experience as pleasurable and useful as possible.
Hopefully I have explained the reasons with sufficient detail.
Thank you in advance, for your help,
Paul & the team
