And we often accuse others of what we ourselves are most guilty of!

There is plenty of blame to go around...

I brought this up a month or so ago when I got back from an extended cruise gig. The forum had/has changed and some folks _whom I don't know and never heard of_ were less than cordial.

I think we are all for spirited debate... right? But its just that sometimes some will not leave it at that and must constantly harp on the same BS over and over and over... it gets pretty old fast and is ultimately a non-starter.

Got a question... great! Got an answer from first hand experience... even better!! Want to offer an opinion... fine.
Want to state your opinion over and over and over again and insinuate that others who don't believe as you do are fools, idiots and the like? NOPE. Go start your own BLOG
Want to talk about my/your mama... well that's something else isn't it? LOL and its almost gotten to that point sometimes.

Its also gotten to the point that folks will just stop participating... and I for one think that that is a sad thing.
