Acadia, lol You ain't seen nothing. You should have seen the constant bitching before they hyper devided the forums. Turned them into a glorified lookup table. I live on a river just down stream of a good size lake. The river is straight and deep enought (about 12 feet on average). It is like totally a no wake zone. Wakes bang boats against docks and wash out yards and developed shorelines. Well, when we moved in when someone would go flying down the river in a speed boat or jet ski people would run out of every home up and down the river- yellin at them to "Slow the hell down asshole". It became almost a game, a way to bring residents together. Pats on the back kinda thing. Community! After a few years that has died away. Mostly. It feels good. Make ya feel superior. Makes you feel your in the right. And dosn't accomplish a damn thing!!! Here at RR it was so bad that it actually was hurting sales across the boards. Causeing constant fighting. Constiant distress. Constant fear among picture makers. A real true "witch hunt" mentality. Now many of the "Warez hunters" have gone. I happen to agree with Cirestfot It's a leadership and a policy problem. The real fix is to make site policy that ONLY the copyright holder can post a complaint. And ONLY through channels! As it is and has been, see something, bitch about it, weather it's any of your business or not.
