No not trying to soften you up and if I disagree I say I disagree.
You have a breath-taking ability to assume, falsely, that you know what I'm thinking, or that you understand my view on anything. I don't think threads need to be managed, and I have no idea what the impact of sending "mumbo jumbo" to support would be, since I've never tried it, or even come to think of it what you mean by "mumbo jumbo" in this context, since it appears to me to have no relevance.
I do not assume. I read what is posted. Instead of Mumbo Jumbo et's use 60 posts with different opinions all in regards to the same subject.
And you think that somebody could and should decide which is which? When opinions will vary so wildly that some will have totally opposite views as to which is valid and which simply far out?
The majority will decide. Someone looks at the posts finds which are the more popular repost to get the opinion on which to present to support.
And so you assume you can volunteer me for this role I haven't even agreed with a need for? Your "more willing participants" clearly implies you think I will be a willing participant. I can assure you nothing is farther from the truth. I would not dream of trying to speak for all ebid users, and would resent anybody else doing so on my behalf. I think it's a truly appalling idea. (I'm speaking VERY plainly, as you seem to have managed to read what you wanted into my previous negative comments).
Where did I assume to volunteer? I believe you may be assuming that as I have never mentioned it. You are entitled to your opinions and if you don't believe a more unified manner to bring member's opinions to support is a bad idea well that's okay. However I firmly believe it is a way to help get things done.
WHAT!? I have no control over the contents of the forums, and if my expressed view is that such posts are tedious and pointless... how on earth does that translate into "you have eliminated"? Good grief. Can you get megalomania-by-proxy, does anybody know?
You read a little to far into my statement when I said you stopped the forum posts. You made a post to a thread answered everybodies concerns and the thread died on it's own. Maybe your not used to compliments but it was meant as one.
You can call it banana if you like. It's still a lousy idea, and I want no part of it. *strides purposefully for the door* Moony, get the hill ready, I'm on my way...
