I don't recall that thread; can you link to it? Ok, so one or two newbies aren't acting like the rest of us... they will smooth over in time, I think.

Be careful to avoid doing the equivalent of say, calling Canadians rude because you met a drunk Elbonian tourist while visiting Alberta.

Ah, that thread. Look at frightlever's post; he was, in fact, acting rather poorly. Ron's reply was a bit more heated than necessary, sure, but it was hostility towards a flaming post... It was not in response to a mature, civil complaint, but to hostile flaming. His view point certainly doesn't represent any sort of majority, though.

Ok, then blatantly.

Don't take random misbehaving new people to be representative of this forum.

I disagree. The first sentence of Ron's post calling fright 'trash' was in response to his, in my opinion, over the top/derogatory remark about you and SJ. The rest of his post has to do with complaints by fright (and others, referenced as 'cronies') about SE5. If this kind of overt hostility is going to be written off as being a little too 'heated', or dismissed because it's a newbie being hostile and not someone with a large post count, than I doubt the much more frequent subtle negativity towards the people who aren't impressed by the current state of the game, will ever be acknowledged. In my opinion this is largely due to willful blindness.

So much imagined drama... Personally, I'd rather go back to discussing the game.

Wow this is starting to get (ahem) stressful. I think this is the point were I would try to crack some pointless joke that has little to do with the topic. However I doubt even my pointless and dry humor would work. How about this? Let’s all take a little of President Roslin’s advice… someone must be the first to let it go. I left this forum once over the hostile attitude of members. Those members are long gone now. The state of the board is very open and peaceful, but in this matter of who is right and is the game broken I see the starts of another cataclysm.

So, can we just let it go and get back on topic?
