Thanks for this thread. I agree that being positive doesn't mean that you agree with someone, only that you mind your manners. It's obvious to anyone with eyes that there is a problem here when new people ask things that show their lack of experience. Most of those threads degenerate rather quickly. I find myself defending those newbies, not for their wrong-headed ideas but simply because I perceive they're being treated unfairly. Since this is a moderated site, maybe a solution would be for the moderators to PM folks if their posts are too harsh, rude, sarcastic, etc. with a gentle reminder. I would hate to see this forum divided into 2 disagreeing camps. That's not why we're here and I would like to see us get back to using this forum as it was intended.
