And it also makes it really difficult to get started or even "back in the game" when you've been away for a while. Lot's of threads on here lately with newbs or people who've been gone and can't figure out what to buy. And it's really tough to make suggestions, too. Then you have a bajillion people saying buy this and buy that and it becomes even more confusing.
So true . Before I came across ECF I watched tons of YouTube reviews to get an idea, even after that I'm still trying to figure out my ideal set up and what will work best for me. So far is good and the help and supportive environment here is amazing.
