Abge - in complete seriousness, YOU hijacked a thread the other day to give voice to morons like tendmote, who insist that the Forum is less than it can be because of off-topic posts and hate-mongering. Since that time, I have watched tendmote, Thucy and oscar, to name a few, come on to threads, admit they don't read the OP or links, and then they just proceed to snarl and attack.
So, while you are super mod -- and you are, let's be clear, and I do have respect for you even if I swipe at you on occassion -- perhaps you might want to point out to the frothing fellows of feigned indignation that things might improve if they followed their own advice, and actually addressed OP's, instead of just flinging their poo.
