No the large tree would never work, least of all because people record things in different ways so even 'matching' trees would clash. |

I don't, I ask the connection then I tell them the line that they are interested in, and then answer any queries they have. I also send copies of photos and certificates that I have. |

Fair enough, it doesn't work quite like I thought it would, but that isn't a problem, i expect many people are in the same boat as me, not deliberately being impolite. |

The facility to allow other members to see access your tree is fundamental to the operation of GR so I can't see it being removed. |

Yes, but why would you copy info from someone else's tree..enter details into your own without ever checking it first. |
