You're assuming that the only people that read posts like these are members of the forum. Got news for you, that's not the case and you know it.
People surf this site and they come here for information, often before becoming members. Since this is also to be an educational website and not just a get together w/ friends website I think clarity is important and essential. Furthermore, while mistakes are posted, many people are quick to correct themselves because they are all too aware that strangers pop in and can potentially get misinformed or mislead to what YORKIETALK is all about.
I enjoy this site and don't see any reason to not clarify. You call it an attack, and you're entitled to call it what you want. If we can't have an open discussion about clarity, then what are we doing here? And again, if it really were an attack, then that poster would have responded to my question and I would've had to argue w/ her for this to really have been anything close to an "attack", imo. I'm sure she's a big girl and when she has the time to post up, she will. I'm sure it's refreshing to her to know that people have her back though...even when it's not needed. |
