Re: Forum Shake up

Foghat,

I agree with you.

Thinking about the newcomer who may be in need of the best conclusions on a subject, it is hard enough to wade through pages of posts from those who have actual experience, let alone the posts of those who are wondering aloud.

It isn't always obvious, but I think the meaning of the word 'support', as a forum style, is that a READY newcomer may ask for assistance...and get it from those who have been THROUGH the same situation...without having to read through all the previous posts.

We who have 'ifs', 'ands', and 'buts', on the other hand, can search both forums to our hearts' content...and post our thoughts here. This PROMOTES clarity and warmth toward those who need support.

Trolls, critics, and the argumentative can go fly a kite in my opinion. They help no one, least of all themselves.

Thinkers, with real and useful questions and suggestions, belong here. This forum is a DEVELOPMENT of the discussion system, as I see it, and essential to order and understanding.

Remarkably, despite the fact that those who are so inclined must read everywhere and create, quote, copy, carry, and post information here, this debate forum SPEEDS UP our collective learning.

I'm all for that!
