For anyone new to a forum it can be a bit confusing working out where to find the button to post a new topic.
In reality it is easy. The top section are ‘recent topics’. You need to scroll down to the relevant section, such as ‘Identification’, or ‘Introduce Yourself’, etc., to start a new topic.
Simples really, once you know how
Yes I really don’t like Roman coins, I’m not joking
Unlike FB groups where items soon "disappear" on a forum they remain and are easy to find even long after the event, so if you have a question that you think might have been asked before try using the "Search" facility - its very useful and often underused.
