wow ddw, like proflific posting and inane threads hasn't been a feature of Mudcat for some time before that?

Maybe I'm wrong but the way I am reading it is that Bob 53 loves folk music but has a few problems at the moment (I seem to remember him mentioning meds in one post for example). I'm not pretending I enjoy the inane threads but in this instance, there may be more reason for it than some of the other stuff I consider to be equally inane.

I also seem to see a situation developing where people are laying into someone who doesn't seem to have the skills to answer back in well written English and someone who seems to be getting driven to a lower and lower point as a result.

I'm afraid I have to ask myself again whether Mudcat is really the caring community it seems to pride itself on being. Is any effeort made to understand those who don't seem to be fitting with the central group? I ask: "If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you?
