actually the two that reece pointed out were ok by me because they did have a connection to sh3 and were not asking for sh4 advice, the one i ran into that caused the post was this one:
http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=112894
it's about bow waves for ships in sh4 and i had thought i had nothing to do with sh3 but later in the post he indicated it was a sh4 ship morfed to sh3 so as it turned out it was a perfectly valid post even if it wasn't clearly stated to indicate that.
it seams like every few days when i check in at subsim (about twice a week) i was finding another sh4 post in this forum. gladley this is not as big a problem as it once was.
i guess i went a little overboard with the 3 out of 5 comment.....ok maybe way overboard,
