Thats just my opinion I could be wrong or maybe I'm right.......
I agree.

Ok, this will be somewhat off the current subject, however, it needs to be said to keep some posters from scaring away other posters.

"To lurkers: As long as you refrain from defending indefensible positions and supporting bigotry and hatred, we'll get along just fine."

Very wrong! If a poster wants to defend certain positions, they can. Everybody has the right to post their opinion, whether it agrees with you or not.

Also, I like people who argue with facts, not hyperbole.
Stick to defensible positions and avoid hypocrisy, and we'll get along quite nicely!

Many posters do not have the time to sit in front of a computer and do research for every post they make. I have a full time job, a family, and many other activities that I am involved in. I don't have time to do research on everything, so I don't post a lot of "facts." This forum is not just for facts, it is for opinions and ideas. Many don't have facts, however, they have experiences. If you want a forum that uses facts only, for the basis of your posts, then you are on the wrong forum.

No matter what another poster says, we want everybody to feel free to post their opinions, whether you have facts or not. If you feel intimidated by any poster on this forum, please PM myself, Todd , or Patrick.

"If they are THAT shy we dun wan 'em."

I'm sure this was just a joke, because we want everyone to post, and feel comfortable doing it.
