Ron, only because you asked:

It's because of the sheer number of times, regardless of the context of the discussion that was taking place, you jumped in with a gripe. Sometimes the gripe was legitimate in its own right, sometimes not. The big factor has been the volume and persistence of the gripes irrespective of the conversation you inserted them into.

Ron, not looking to argue - you asked and I'm respecting you enough to give you my honest opinion.

LOL, Cobra I do believe that Websters needs to use your line as an example for sarcasm. "gentle mind washing through continuance of presence" what a dry way to finish your line. Kudos on several levels.

I'm with Halsey and Nomad on this.. Ron has been instrumental in changes to the game, and has likely taken the flak for a lot of stuff some folks were too chicken**** to say.
We all play a great game here, and to feel it should have never had any of its' components criticized, somewhat diminishes the size of the game.
(We are however wary of the Canadians gathering on the borders.)[:D]
