All right folks, we've proven it. "Bandwidth expands to fit the waste available."

This is a community. We don't all get along or agree. We share opinions and thoughts from different perspectives. I don't give a damn whether someone has paid or not, only whether they contribute something. Like many others, I wait until I have something new to add before posting.

I have in the past (while learning the requisite "netiquette) flamed those who probably didn't deserve it. I've learned from that and moved on (even apologized, on occasion).

The cynic in me say not to try this one, but, "Can't we all just get along?" Don't we all have something better to do than wade through 60+ posts on a day when nothing of substance happened (via news or price changes)?

If your ego is so unformed that you have to post inflammatory statements just for the sake of getting a response, maybe you should invest in some therapy. If your sense of moral outrage at being "forced" to read the same inflammatory statements drives you to flame back or continually re-address the grievance, I also suggest an investment in therapy.

This place can be what we make it. I'd like it to be a place where we can learn from each other.
