Terry. Amen. Since the time NE and I have been lurking, and then posting, we have noticed a very noteable change in attitudes, I have even sent a PM to a poster and stated, this site was not what I thought it was, it has changed!
We've also noticed that no matter what topic you bring up and post, it is either 'hijacked' or someone has to bully and treat you like an idiot because of your beliefs and ALWAYS has to have the last word, but unfortunately us newbies don't get the 100 posts allotted to us like these ones you're talking about.
I'm on board with your idea, because personally, I do not have the personal time to sit all day long and prove points because I work 7 days a week.
