If it is entirely within the rights of people to blowup at every little thing around here (and yes this was little) then I am completely within my rights. I am sorry. This place is too full of shoot first ask questions later. A bunch of "I sorry" after the fact does nothing to improve anything. People should try asking questions first before they go ballistic. And, for the record, this place is NOT a democracy. It is a somewhat benevolent dictatorship founded on a bit of capitalism. The mods/owners here manage to do things every now and then that "stir the pot" which sets everybody off, only to somehow calm down a few days later. The simple fact is, if you don't like things, suggest improvements/ask questions/GET THE FACTS. If changes that you do not like occur, get used to them or leave. It IS as simple as that. If enough people leave, the mods/owners will realize their folly and make change or they will go out of business. Simple economics. A bit honey goes a lot further than piss vinegar. And that was EXACTLY what FishNose came in here spewing. I just responded IN KIND in the SAME MANNER that he/she did. Apologies, maybe to the others in the forum. To FishNose, nope, not yet. Even though he/she has apologized, common decency and courtesy would have kept this from happening in the first place. He/she could just have easily posted the question here asking what was going on. A fair and quick response would have been the reply.
