It was only a matter of time before people used the Annexe as a place to vent what wouldn't be allowed on Mudcat. I stayed out of it. People of one particular viewpoint complaining is just venting. People arguing with them is... an argument, consisting of anything from fanning the banked coals of a grudge to flat-out flaming.

I'll be sorry if some other solution can't be reached. I'll miss reading about gardening or wildlife, finding new recipes or enjoying stunning photographs and poetry. I hope it comes back soon, with whatever is needed to prevent arguments and extended inanity from taking over. I haven't posted much except when Mudcat was down, but I enjoyed reading posts.
