The Clam Box is located in Ipswich, MA … really happy to see this place get a model kit of its own, because it isn't summer for those of us within 30 miles until you've been to The Clam Box for a big platter of fried clams, scallops, and shrimp on a bed of french fries and onion rings.

I might be nitpicking on grammar here as a non-native English speaking person:

Throughout this issue I see "New MRH forum" being used, for example "New MRH forum user Bernd  ....". To me it initially read as "On the MRH forum, new user Bernd...". And I was like wait a minute, I know user Bernd is a regular user here that has been here for many years. Then I realized that you actually meant "On the New MRH forum, user Bernd ...".

Is it really needed to add the 'new' qualifier to 'MRH forum' instead of using just 'MRH forum'? After all, for the magazine readers it shouldn't matter if you switched to new forum software.

Other than that nitpick: yet again a great new issue!

That's actually a mistake, we intend to only use NEW when the member is new. So we have double-checked to make sure we're using NEW when it's a new member.  We have removed new from the sentence talking about Bernd. The word new crept in from a prior issue and we missed deleting it when we were updating this text.

The forum is the forum. We don't use new for it, we totally agree with you.
