I asked Mr Hyatt in a very cordial manner to >rethink his policy of noplaying and censoring LeTiger. That is all. David, Writing as a lurker here for a little while I would like to express my sympathy with you. Perfectly well written, non-rude, well-argued or even polite requests which are seen as even marginally critical of certain people here are routinely met with summary rudeness as if this was the most natural response in the world. Once the rude lead has been given there is then a tendency for a mob with unknown names and common agenda to then jump all over the original posting 'offender' as if it entirely natural, their right and they 'own the place'. With observation over time it appears that posters capable of making knowledgeable posts just leave, or restrict their posting to the occasional hostile complaint or flame. Slowly the whole thing just degenerates. Time for a new forum or return to rgcc. This one doesn't work anymore.

Thanks for all the courtesy >extended by Mr Hyatt, Andreas and Pavel.
