What do you like about TRF? Let's inject some positivity.
There seems to be a lot of negativity floating around in the forum of late so how about we inject some positivity?
I'm a noob but joined to gain the insight and experience of the other more established members in what, to me, is quite a new love/hobby. Personally I like the majority of help me choose threads as they get you thinking and also introduce new brands and models. What do you guys like? And please, lets keep it positive. |

Repetition be damned, I love the daily "WRUW" threads. Simple snapshots, no politics, occasional positive feedback but seldom if ever anything negative. It's like window shopping! Sometimes you're reminded how nice a former possession looks, sometimes one catches your eye and sparks a hunt...it's always good!

I have noticed the last couple of weeks have been truly unprecedented in the amount of pettiness and just flat-out unworthiness of this fine site. Hope we return to our regular programming soon. cheers. |

The pictures. I'd rather look at old, beautiful Rolexes than just about anything else. (Just about...)

In keeping with the positive outlook, I feel very validated when I can disagree with someone and have my viewpoint be another voice, rather than a dissident who needs to be punished. Free exchange of ideas and viewpoints is priceless.

I like that because I visit TRF I now know exactly when and where it is safe or not safe to wear my Rolex.

I don't like the fact I log on, see a watch I like then proceed to search for that particular watch so I don't really stay on the site I'm sorry..
But I do like looking at the watches and the knowledge of the majority of posters .. thanks |

The people here are more sophisticated than say the Tacoma 4x4 world forum. Some of the humorous posts here keep you on your toes.
