I see this a little (can't say never) here but not that much. This is really prevalent at Shop Talk Forums. I only go there once per week and I almost never post there anymore. I certainly won't post there if any one of four or five posters in particular are already involved in a thread. Unfortunately, these nose-bleeds hang out in the forums which have most of my interest.

The few times I have seen it here aren't coming from the mothers-in-law of all posters. And the snidefest seems to have a short shelf-life.

This post aside, I am trying to cut down my activity in the "Off Topic" area here and "The Lounge" at SBO!.com. I started to think I was contributing to the static rather than genuinely contributing about four months ago. I still attend both sites nearly every day.

...sounds like glenn at the samba. he's alright though. or the rants. i don't think anyone should really be too worried, it's just the internet. people may make some stupid statements sometimes but they usually contribute in a good way somehow

personally for me, i do alot of surfing, but not a whole lot of posting. i mean look at my join date - 04 i think... and i've had like 4 posts on here.

i just do alot of reading, learning, and looking... that sort of thing. alot of what i want to know, has been discussed somewhere before. i remember one night, sitting down at the computer while the wife and kids were away, and reading thru, no kidding, 100's of posts and topics over at SBO!

if i cant find the answer after looking myself... yes i do know how to use the search function... THEN i'll post up about it.

i have about 5 forums that i frequent on a daily basis, mainly glazing over the new topics... and when i have time, i dive into the older posts just for the sake of reading things.
