Jeremy,

If an "I wish _____ would stay away" or an "I wish _____ would leave" thread was acceptable (AND I AM NOT SAYING IT SHOULD BE), then these "I Love ____" or "I Miss___" or "Welcome Back ____" threads would be fine.

My problem is the double standard. IMO, if someone were to start an "I appreciate CameraGuy" thread, then people who do not share that sentiment should be free to post there disagreement.

By the same token, if an "I appreciate CameraGuy" thread is acceptable, then IMO an "I despise CameraGuy" thread should be acceptable too.

The way I see it is that everyone has an opinion and they are welcome to it. I don't live and die over what a member of an Internet BB thinks of me, so I could not care less if someone were to critisize me here.

That's just my opinion.
