Catman,

I agree with the majority of what you said. I too have been posting far less (not that I ever posted a lot) than months past.

I believe if there were a measurable: average value of information per post, it would have decreased slowly over the past 6 months...slowly slipping below my value threshold.

In recent weeks I tried to start some interesting topics (in my opinion). A couple in the *A forum regarding management, who is next to enter, etc. A little interest was shown.

Maybe all this is a symptom of popularity of the board? Like when a pop song gets too popular and a quick negativity is spawned against it dropping it off the charts rapidly?

I too have been caught up in the negativity in the past 6 months. I enjoy spirited discussions and even a little tough discussion...but did I go too far? I don't know. I am sure you remember Catman when I asked you directly if I should post an apology on the board? Instead of an apology I started limiting my posts and how often I visit.

Just some ramblings and thoughts....

Dorian
