I totally agree with all these responses and your original message. Posters should consider whether or not their post is of general interest to the whole forum or if they just have a "message" they want to give to another poster and use private messages for them. Many otherwise useful threads have been ruined by childish, pointless, arguments.

Overall, the forum is a huge asset to all of us lake lovers and a source of endless enjoyment and knowledge.

Thanks for all you do, Don!
