This is what I will never understand! Why would you (or anyone) want to take a shot anyway? By all means post that you do not agree with a point of view but in this case it was not just that was it? You set out to beat Dave with his own words and in the event did so entirely out of context. Dave was offering his advice to Scott L and you seemed unable to offer any UNTIL you had belittled Daves. Maybe you thought that trashing someone else's opinion would make your own appear stronger?

I am not saying that your advice to Scott was not valid or even good advice. What I am saying is that it was not enhanced any by your 'shot' at Daves advice.

Even your quote above cannot just say...."Let Dave fight his own battles" without you adding the inference that Dave may not be the Pro we all think he is. That just comes across as sour. If you don't like the man or his 'persona' then that is fine. However let your opinions and arguments stand on their own merit. Taking cheap shots at anothers advice for whatever reason will not promote your point of view effectively.

It is not just you Pro. It seems that this 'take a shot culture' is everywhere at the moment. It used to be that even if we did not agree with each other threads were always continued with the premise that there was a basic respect for the person or people behind the post. It seems these days that it is more important to provoke a response than to actually help and understand each other effectively.




All that padding can't be good for the figure. I'll stand at the side and sip me gin thanks.
