[QUOTE="kalani, post: 6718798, member: 88085"] I just wanted to say - Everyone is entitled to an opinion, even one that disagrees with you. As long as everyone remains civil with each other, differing opinions are a good thing as it can lead to discussion of how best to improve upon the way things are done. It's when things get heated, or disrespectful that I personally have a problem with things. Ideally, everyone should also try to have as-informed an opinion as possible. While it may be impossible to have all the facts, I personally try to refrain from forming an opinion until I have as much information as possible. In this case - I think AngryGM was acting on some misinformation colored by his personal experiences and perspectives with the program. This is itself insightful, as understanding the perspective of GMs on the ground (who may not have access to good information sources, or may not know they exist) only helps us improve our methods of information distribution. I won't really speak to Voltramax's article except to say that if he is the same LC who was asking whether we should write a rebuttal post in our FB discussion, I highly doubt he was let go for suggesting the idea. While the idea was shot down as being unnecessary (as everyone is entitled to an opinion - even AngryGM) and IMHO - may have caused more damage than good (as it may have appeared as damage control), there was no animosity directed toward the LC for suggesting the idea.
