JBE: at least on the boards that i look at regularly and their counterparts at Yahoo i don't on SI see nearly the level of OFF topic drivel and histrionics (?) that is on Yahoo. i'm going to do my part to prevent some jackass getting a foothold on the thread. as in other venues once they get a presence they drive all the well meaning and contributing members off the board who don't want to contend with their juvenile/paranoic/aberrant/belligerent behavior. i just gave up on a Yahoo board (USAB) tonight that i and 2 others had started about 4/15. we were posts #5, etc. and by post 200 all the know nothings and trash mouths were onboard. an entry fee is definitely one effective way to filter out the worst of the jackasses. Sorry you have bad experiences but usually this board is pretty informative and focused. i believe you were looking over the msgs at the moment i had to spank some guy who forgot the purpose of the board and whose comments were totally out of place. it reminded me of taking one of my teenagers to the woodshed. good trading....
