the state of the forum

[Blarg]

I'm not sure what all that was about, but if you let ONE poster drive you away from a whole forum forever, you are being too peevish and I have to say that it's hard to picture you not deserving much more credit for chasing yourself away than that person does.

Every forum has people that rub us the wrong way. Nobody likes that, but it's not the end of the world and it's overreacting to make it the end of your trip to that forum.

I'd go so far as to say that people riling each other up is inevitable sooner or later. The trick is to ignore it when you have to, get over it when you can. That's just normal adult stuff, no big deal. And, try not to take the bait too often, because there will always be someone trying to wave it. I do it too much too, but after being pissed off for a while, it passes.

i don't see how defending myself when someone makes inaccurate claims about something i said months ago is childish, but whatever

i think the "ask me about moose hunting" thread he's talking about is this one:

I don't even know what you guys are talking about and am not curious, so I'm just confining myself to talking about it being a wrong move to let someone spook you off a forum.

I also can see somewhat how it came about that basically a personal quarrel made its way into this thread, but I don't think it's really the appropriate place for it.

You are both good posters here. Can you stop the bickering please?
