Hi Michael:

I actually enjoyed your article...anyway, the forum used to be calm and serene - very little sarcasm & flaming happened.

Relatively recently, due to the fact that the forum became popular and exposed, individuals have "invaded" and spread insults, hate & even lies. In fact, this has caused some long-time forum participants to leave & never come back.

Micah does a really great job of "policing" the forum (for lack of a better word) to weed out the troublemakers.

Here's my advice - I've been reading the forum since early 1998, and found that when someone raises an intelligent, well thought out and articulate argument, there aren't too many problems, and people can be surprisingly mature.

Cheers,
Sean
