Hey everyone....It's me....the OP....I can't help but say that I've truly enjoyed all of your comments. I've absolutely have spent over 40 hours going through various threads and what I've found to take place a great number of times is as follows. I'll call this
When a Person Posts
1. Several persons do what this site was made for. They help and assist. To them I say thank you.
2. Several people people attack (either the OP or the persons responding to the OP) directly or indirectly.
3. The attack will normally draw the less seasoned persons, possibly the OP as well, into anonymous computer sparring or straight out arguments while the seasoned vets make a statement or two and keep it moving.
4. The moderator either gets everyone back on track or shuts the thread down.
That's my take on it given my little bit of time "lurking" as you call it. And it's all cool. So without getting overly involved with the above dynamic I would like to say to DRob specifically. I was very transparent at the outset with this online community to allow the readers to make a good assessment of how I should approach things. I felt your barb in your first post and overlooked it. You got a bit emboldened in your second post based on quite a few assumptions. Out all that I stated, and again I say, out of all that I stated, you seemed to have gotten focused on me wanting to spend time talking with a beautiful woman as opposed to....hmmm....let's say you or some of the other guys. Duuuuhhhhhh. Is that going to be a problem in the DR. Your position was absolutely legit if you indeed were knew factually certain things about me. You should read the posts, on this thread, of the veterans as I'm sure they may have had similar thoughts and concerns. However, they told me their approach on the thread that I began, without offense. To them and the rest of you who've helped, and you have....Thanks alot. The site is hot. Later.
