[QUOTE="Kobold Boots, post: 7345829, member: 92239"] Speaking openly, there are a few things that happen in any thread that Pem is involved with. 1. It's guaranteed to go 40 pages. Which lowers anyone's desire to read it, eventually. 2. It's going to read like a book. Again, which lowers anyone's desire to read it, eventually. 3. His replies are going to be low on understanding what anyone else is saying and big on creating the kind of arguments that keep the thread going. The reason I blocked him briefly was because I came to the conclusion that one of two things was happening. 1. He was getting paid by the site owners to drive traffic through his threads OR 2. His hobby was being argumentative just to give him something to do. However, the trade off to block is his volume of posting causes a serious disruption to many threads when you can no longer see what he's writing. He's got some good ideas but it's tough to get a point across when talking to him seems like you're clapping with one hand. This post is a little stronger than I'm generally comfortable posting. However, with any luck it'll help change things for the better. Passion is definitely there. If he'd take some advice to really try and understand what others are saying, we'd have some tighter conversations. Be well KB [/QUOTE]
