I regard most of the regulars here as helpful. Even extremely helpful.
But I do not think that give any right to be uncivil. Do you?
I have a general impression that many of those fruitless 150 post
threads have been prolonged by uncivil behavior of regulars.
And I do not think I am alone, as several people have expressed
frustrations of the tone used by some of these regulars.
Now, people even write disclaimers in their first post, asking not
to be attacked.
I find it sad that regulars here resort to namecalling, suggesting
mental diagnosis and other uncivil behviour. It's even more sad
that it will not help to point it out.
It's also a little bit amusing that two of the most helpful people,
you and Kendall, which also behave very civil, are the only ones of
the regulars that try to convince me that I am wrong, or that it is
OK the way other speak.
Sandy, since you suggest that I go back and read earlier posts, I
can tell you that I have read very much of what has been written
here for the last 2,5 years. My first post here (then as
NorwegianViking) was 2,5 years ago (exactly two days later than
your first post as SandyF)
And, as you might have seen, I am good at keeping track of links.
But I prefer not to to prove examples. Either you see this, or you
don't. I see it, others see it, you don't.
yvind, anyone: for an interesting analysis of contributions and
credibility, click on any poster's name, especially anyone you
consider negative or unhelpful in this thread. you'll see his/her
posts in total. Read through the posts.
Best regards, Sandy
