I'm not denying that Kat, and after re-reading my post it does seem that I was defending when in fact I intended to be neutral. The point I was making was how many posts and threads have come and gone over the years trying to decide if others posts or threads were worthy of being here at all. To me it's as ironic as shouting at the top of your lungs about how noisy things are.
I do also think at times folks around here are often badgered about their opinions rather than just simply disagreed with. It doesn't happen all the time, but it does happen.....not really sure if this qualifies or not since I don't know the history....
