the forum isn't new & it's practically barren. I joined for a month just because my time was worth the $100 of someone gathering all that info in one place and getting a peek at the tools he used to speed up some of the process. I suppose I could have asked some of those questions to others here but it was one of those things where I didn't know what questions I had.
That being said, I wouldn't recommend it to newer affs who don't put a high price on their time and know that info exists elsewhere, even if it isn't packaged as concisely. If you do join, I don't really see much reason to stay beyond a month after you read the posts. The answer to every tactical question ends up being "test" anyway.
