Make love not war

There is nothing wrong with PPBB. There is nothing wrong with 986 forum. If you don't like one, don't go there. Web forums are communities and like real-world, physical communities, they acquire the personalities, prejudices and proclivities of those that live there. If those folks ain't your kinda folks its very easy to move out. But don't bash them. It lowers people's opinion of the basher not the bashee.

My intent was not to bash the posters at PPBB; I just feel the place is too "clique-ish" for my taste, hence my de-link. JPA in PA does his best to make reason...he must like abuse.

For me, I enjoy the technical discussions and have learned quite a bit about our engines from Jake and Charles. To read the posts where everything and anything is challenged ("the sky isn't really blue") gets old.

I think it's ok to challenge that the sky is blue as long as you also challenge that the Earth is flat.

Sounds as if this forum may not be suited for your personality. It appears that all you want to do is "stir the pot", which is unfortunate and serves no useful purpose.

Wow, now that's deep. You should be a philosopher.

Depends on the definition of "is".
