I have no problem with honest criticism and thanks for your comments.Hey BRU, I don't think we have any issues with one another personally; but man, please allow me to respectfully suggest you not allow this Board to affect you as negatively as it sometimes appears.
There are a few individuals around here who admittedly give me heartburn.....as with DD, the IGNORE feature indeed works very effectively for me in many of those cases......but I simply deal with most of them not buried on my leper list by exercising my individual ability to ignore their message. After all, arguing a point around here......once the juices really begin flowing......redefines the phrase "exercise in futility".
I'm thinking taking a similar "ignore it" perspective might be helpful for you in those times when you're crossed by those who (for whatever reason) find themselves violently opposed to you. Or else, give the global IGNORE feature a workout; it really does help with clearing out the roaches.
For the record, I'll keep my comments to myself in the future if they're unwelcome..... but I wanted to give this suggestion the ol' college try.
I don't feel the need to put anyone on ignore. I am able to control my behavior regardless if it is reading others or my response. My actions are intentional.
