(You post a lot!) I'm sure if I went further back into your posting history I could find you more examples. I am posting this is the hopes that you were sincere about wanting to be a more productive and civil poster.Please note I did not ask you to stop posting negative things about Wizards or their products. My posts only concern the manner in whcih you post, not the substance.</blockquote>
