Boo hoo. Cut it out LT, no one is buying what you're peddling here.

Only yesterday poor Josy had to again bump the sniping thread again to warn members about this.

Hopefully now the guilty parties will have taken note.

Nor is anyone buying that you even believe that repeatedly-bumped thread is targetted at one specific group or "side". It takes two to tango, etc etc, and I know Kirk himself isn't shy about sharing his opinion that his "face doesn't fit" with the mods / admins. Everyone here gets personal at times. That's what elevates the discussion ABOVE the bland, cold, clinical discussions you get on larger forums. Kirk's not above peppering his own posts with personal comments and amusing "threats" / brags either but that's half... or... maybe about 3/4... of the enjoyment! All of this whining and looking for forum staff to step in will end up breaking the place. Trust me. I've been an avid forum user since 1998 and I've seen plenty of them collapse under the strain of pettiness, including my own.
