8 I think there is some great advise to be had here, but equally you need to use your own thoughts as well and take some opinions with a pinch of salt!

Err I'd give it a 7 definately for information- although i learn better by being shown and being able to practise things, for people and stuff a good 9, for response to posts a 6 (but then i ask obscure questions so may 6/12 or 7 again lol)
Errr so overall 7 1/2 (sounds harsh but im just being critical)

I found Silver Florin's story really inspirational, infact shes just an inspiration full stop

Overall everyone is just generally nice and friendly though

I would say a 6, as some of the replies can be not so helpful, I have had some wonderful advice and guidance though and met in the virtual world so to speak some wonderful people

10 - everyone has different opinions and it's great to read them all - even the rude/blunt ones!

The first useful bit of info I gleaned from here was using soaked oats to put weight on in the winter.

I've used that for the last 2 winters in replacement of all the expensive balancers and 'adders' I'd tried in the past. This one is way way cheaper.

And I've made a good few friends out of forum members too!

8. I had some advice to try a make of saddle on my horse that I had never heard of and would never have tried otherwise. I tried the saddle and despite previous back problems my horse loved it and is a changed animal in it
