O/T - Are We All Friends
i may be ranting a bit, but after having used this forum for about a month i find most people are fantastitic with their opinions and advice, but they seem loathed to divulge straight talking answers! i sometimes wonder if this is because they have employed the services of an agent? and think that everybody should? i havn't got a particular gripe! just my opinion on reading lots of replies to threads, from recent to ages ago.
only a thought LOL

You will however find that there are many people that are quite a way through the migration process and have a wealth of knowledge. In my opinion you ask a direct/ specific question you get a direct/ specific answer ( well hope to ), If you use some of the other forums you find that it is more to do with chit chat rather than discussing the serious issue of immigration. I hope I have given you an answer that doesn't seem to much of a straight answer, me like you am open to suggestions and the wealth of knowledge available can only be a good thing for us that are in the early stages of migration.

Maybe your questions are just too complex or specific to be answered on here?

Just a reminder that posts made to the "Australian & New Zealand Immigration" forum go straight out to the newsgroup. Please try and keep threads on topic or post in the Australian Lifestyle forum if they are not immigration related.

Yes, in this case. But don't worry about it, I've disconnected this thread from usenet now, so you can carry on with the discussion

Re: O/T - Are We All Friends
I've been lurking on these threads for quite a while now and I have always found people to be as helpful as they are able. Very often, it depends who is online when you post your question and how many threads have been started that day. Sometimes you can post a question and get only a few replies, other times you post the same question and generate an enormous thread of discussions and get some extremely helpful feedback.
