I have always fought for civil posts (since 98). I may have slipped myself on one or two occations (probably with Kim!), and if so I'm sorry, I know better. Actually I don't fault you per se. I don't fault you at all.
But the posts on this site from the pro-Westerfield crowd to the anti-Westerfield crowd were viscious in extreme.
I spoke up ... not just because I was the target. But more people should have spoken up on the pro-Westerfield side decrying the tactics.
I saw it on both sides, and it was very hard to figure out where and when it started, but I didn't like it from either side.
I begged JR to bring back one long thread he deleted and he did.
