More than anything, it's this childish disrespect for the others that follow along the threads that disappoints me.
Sure, it's primarily 20 or so members, but their presence is pervasive, and it greatly devalues the threads and the forum for me.
Who knows, maybe it's just me, but I tend to think I'm not the only one.
More often than not I find myself thinking "oh, just STFU already and leave the thread alone".

Very well put and really reflects my view of the situation here. I am relatively new here and am spending quite some time with the BBS. But have been noticing how the behavior of a few can really shape the spirit of the board for everyone. I do hope those few can make some changes before they cause the loss of other valuable members!
Keep the argumentative stuff for PARF I never go there.
My spelling is so bad that I have to go over what I write any way, gives me a chance to reread before posting.
