That is a HUGE assumption, isn't it. lol
I'm reminded of how much you love me everytime I get on here, with my little infraction reminder staring me in the face..
EDIT: To not create the wrong impression, I got my infraction for something I did, and it was deserved. It was handled very professionally, with no hard feelings on my part. It's something I can look back on and laugh about getting caught. I knew I was pushing it, and I did get caught.

I would like to point out that in as much as it is "adult" to consider the wide range of values and backgrounds of those posting and viewing the forums, wouldn't it also be correct to say it is also "adult" to look at the posts of someone such as MNdriver and be able to use the information presented and not allow yourself to become offended or peaved in the process ? Isn't it also adult to accept people for who they are and choose whether or not to engage them ?
It has to be a little of both. I don't think it makes much sense to define how adult someone is acting by whether they only make posts suitable for children to view.
I bickered with him plenty, but at the end of the day I recognize his knowledge of spreadsheets and accounting software. In fact I'm thinking of changing my accounting system at the end of the year and will probably be consulting with him on my options. In hindsight, there were definitely times such as when we argued endlessly concerning APU's vs. generators on a truck that we probably should have moved our discussion to email or something instead of hijacking the thread. At the time I felt we were covering all the pro's and con's of the two options and it could be useful to people to read. Were we the juvenile ones for engaging in a three page argument, or is it the people who cannot get past the friction and see the facts presented ? IDK, but the info is there for posterity I suppose.mje, bullhaulerswife and 25(2)+2 Thank this. -

We can all have a spirited conversation without stooping to name calling and insults. When name calling starts, respect is gone, and everything goes down hill rapidly from there.
Also, when people who seem to thrive on confrontation are causing issues all over the site it really discourages new members of the community from participating....they are afraid to ask a question because they don't want to have to deal with the BS that will follow....can't blame them there....there is enough BS in day to day life without getting more of it on this site.
You are also right about people who show up here just looking for a reason to be offended....those people are just as bad as those who go out of their way to be offensive....it's a heck of a juggling act to try and strike a balance that works.mje, Big Don, KANSAS TRANSIT and 6 others Thank this. -
