You know what, screw it. There are opinions here I like to read, even those of ghoti. I respect NI's vast knowledge, and I love Dumpy, Netted, reganomics, maxamillion, Universe, NOMAM, and many others. I've enjoyed exchanging ideas and views in the past. But if this is the kind of hospitality I'm going to be extended by moderators and even administrators here, screw it. I don't need the hassle or the "agita". There are plenty of other forums where I can discuss the Nets, probably even a few where I won't be ridiculed for simply being myself.
The only criticism of you I see in this thread relates to what you posted, not you personally. If you can't separate the two and handle yourself better than this, maybe public discussion forums aren't for you. Perhaps you can start a blog or write articles. That way you can decide whether you want feedback or if you would rather not interact with people who might disagree with you.

From what i can interpret from just skimming through the thread, it seems people are pissed that FOMV perhaps beats around the bush instead of getting to the point in two paragraphs.
