That's true Kriminal, one can very easily not click on the thread. And yes for the most part the forum is the best I know of. My only gripe really was off topic debating getting onto more threads. Provokes, rather than sticks to the point of the forum.

Again, Russ has forums for those topics alone, should people want to keep having it out. However, again I'm not suggesting any of us should be RIGIDLY amalgam all the time either.

I guess one should just focus on the rest of the threads as much as they can and keep away from the ones that cause upset. Just hope it doesn't become habitual on here.
