Hmmmm, BGB2 -- perhaps you'd better re-read what you just wrote. You just slammed this entire forum. So, I need to ask you:

Were your words true?
No. This thread is lively, but no one is attacking anyone. We are expressing strong opinions about a lively and controversial topic. Strike 1.
Were your words fair?
Again, no. You have lumped all the forum members into one big "nasty" group. Not exactly fair, do you think? Strike 2.
Were your words necessary?
I think not. Express an opinion about the topic -- or perhaps about a single forum member that you disagree with. But it isn't necessary to condemn a whole group based upon your opinion. Strike 3.
Nothing personnal - just doing a little logical analysis, here.
