Me thinks some people doth protest too much. My assessment is that there has recently evolved a sharp trend with some users of this forum to pounce on the slightest difference of opinion as though it were a vicous and personal attack on their (sometimes yet to be announced) feelings on a given topic. There seems to be less productive and light banter and more dart throwing and "last wording" than ever before here. Some of our more seasoned participants I feel have given up.

 

Also, the summer flying season is over and many have major honey-do lists for the yard to take care of before the snow flies so find it a great time to take a break.

My question to the departed ones is why didn't they speak up rather than give up?

 

The departed ones could have also chosen to ignore the BS posts and continue on with the topics they had something to contribute to.

 

This is my just humble opinion I am sure many will disagree.

your humble opinion is just as good as anyone else's, elvis, but i gotta side with 100ft on this one... some of the comments were just getting as ridiulous as the ideas that started the threads they were on...

 

sometimes it's hard to speak up when you don't know what the **** the original point was... mind you, it's like a good nitetime soap.. you just gotta come back to see what's gonna get said or thrown next!!!! :shock:

[Elvis]

My point exactly, but if the departed didn't speak up.

 

A lot of people with good input to this forum have left because they didn't like the direction of the topics, but I didn't see any attempts to correct it.

 

If You don't like the topics start Your own.

To add to ####'s comment I remember in the early days of this site I made a comment that a topic was way off topic and I was quickly admonished (my big word of the day) by one of the top posters that it was common practice for posts to drift off course and I should learn to live with it or get lost.

See, now we're communicating... This has brought up the whole problem of some people like certain ex members that I'm sure we all remember who have ended up being forced to leave because of the problems they created. I think all in all, most people can have a lively discussion without it deteriorating to the bs of name calling and worse. A little emotion is sometimes good when discussing things we are passionate about. You know, things like which type of beer is best....

That would be Duff beer, right Homer.
