The people posting in those threads are not the trolls that have plagued us of late and do not deserve to be belittled by others for their participation. I saw that happening in the mid year update thread last week (or the week before) and it really dissappointed me. Fellow FTers were treated very badly by some members for doing nothing more than posting their mid-year numbers. They did not deserve such treatment.
