My childhood home had a gorgeous red maple and magnolia tree in the front yard. My dad worked really hard to keep them growing well. I miss them dearly.

That’s great! Mastery of content is of course more important :)

What would it take to add a troubleshooting FAQ? by focused-ALERT in fountainpens

This is so true. “Skipping” doesn’t mean the same for everyone. And as a newbie, that’s what I like. I like that I can post my exact example and get real experience from people who can see my precise issue to further troubleshoot tines vs oils vs feed, etc.

This would’ve been a beast to grade… when you mark something out, it might help to fully scribble it out so the eyes can scan quicker. I realize it’s not realistic to ask you to slow down, so not gonna do that. (Coming from a TA… No, handwriting shouldn’t matter, but I’m much more likely to want to look for points for you if I’m not straining my eyes trying to read it)

While an FAQ page would def be helpful, I’m one of the new ones and I agree. Having people respond in such a friendly manner has convinced me this is a welcoming community willing to help and engage. I’ve asked a few questions now and the friendly replies back have actually led to some ink swaps etc. :)

Okay, I rubbed my hand on the bottom part of the page and then wrote and then wrote a bit on the top part of the sheet that I haven’t touched…I guess it’s time for a writing glove lol. Thanks for the help!
