Ausfish is just like every other forum Tim, threads evolve, that's what happens over 9 pages.
I agree it's good to have Mark Robinson MP on this site, good for us and good for him. I hope this is taken as constructive criticism but I do wish you (Mark) would answer the questions members put to you here, almost all have gone unanswered. To truly engage with us means more than posting your media statements and answering a couple of Dorothy Dixers. I also find it a bit annoying whenever Mark is asked fairdinkum questions that we'd all like him to answer, others, normaly it's Tim, or even Phil once or twice comes in with "let me answer this for Mark", or "I think I can answer this one". Sometimes within mins of the question being asked. I don't care if Mark only pops in once a month as long as he answered our questions, at least then we'd be hearing it from the horses mouth. The questions are almost all to to with his portfolio or about something Mark has said, so when they're ignored by Mark or answered (more often than not incorrectly) by some one else on Mark's behalf it causes myself and obviously others to doubt the motives of Mark's involvement on this site.
One more tip Mark, maybe using a avatar photo of yourself holding a fish would be a better choice on this website, the one you're using now looks more suited for a campaign poster. (pun intended)
Cheers
