I don’t appreciate being sworn at for just passing an opinion. It might be a contrary opinion to the board but I’m pretty sure it doesn’t warrant being personally abused. Perhaps Lane ought to offensively abuse Matt too for stating a contrary position too? Chris has just stated pretty much what I had said in my blunt English way but I don’t see him being sworn at or ridiculed for being old? People on the board should be able to carry on conversations without resorting to personal abuse, it’s not the first time Lane has abused me due to the fact he dislikes me

(EDIT: I might perhaps be doing Lane a disservice here, I believe it might have been Randy that has sworn at me before. Anyway the sentiment is the same - the board should be able to carry on conversations without abusing the GM’s just for taking a contrary stance to theirs or for pointing out that their solution might not be the whole problem)

This is about sharing something we all enjoy. If it makes it more enjoyable for the guy that cant post as often because it is a heavy lift then we should all be for it. It will keep guys engaged and provide more content for all of us increasing everyones enjoyment. If you like to link then make your links. If you don't have time to link that's ok too because that content will be posted. I would hate to miss out on a fantastic post just because of a linking requirement.

I usually don't do this. Sorry for the rant.

I don't dislike you, and I am not upset that you don't like the change. As I clearly stated, I am upset at the logical fallacies being thrown around here, as if one small change is going to destroy the league.

Logical fallacies are in the mind of the perceiver.
