I don't blame Chaz, I really don't. The thread, while hypocritical, is to keep everyone from being all "Where's Chaz lately?"
The forums as a whole are taking a new feel to them, almost an attitude that isn't conductive to the place growing. It's becoming very hostile toward anyone that disagrees, at all, and it's even coming from the people that should be keeping the peace around here. It's becoming more of what those other forums were becoming before the great migration.
It's actions like this, from just a few people really, that make me NOT visit here as often as I did before. Too many of the threads turn into the "OMG, you disagreed with me! You're an ignorant asshole." I don't expect to have hugs and roses for everyone, but it's getting where you don't want to post in threads because of people. I... I just don't know what to expect around here from the people that I thought that I knew, and honestly, it's starting to turn me off from here. I have people that I would call a friend, or at least a neighbor, on here, but I've noticed that even they have been posting less of late.
I've stopped, erased and restarted this a couple of different times, I think I have what I wanted to say at least in a semi-literate manner now.

And, the tags at the bottom just go to show what asses some people are really being.
