I guess my question is why so many of the people involved in this newsgroup take the time to exchange posts like (the many above in this thread) and many others.

If people's motivations are to genuinely help each other I think it could best be approached in a positive, non-judgemental manner.

The words that many people choose to use appear to me, many times, to be more designed to put people down rather than help people.

Words such as arrogant, self-serving, and deficient do not appear in my own personal opinion to be choices that help anyone.

Why don't we try to move this group into a more open, approachable, and humble manner.

How about some serious efforts toward professional courtesy and an open and non-judgemental exchange of opinion.

One possible way to approach these postings. Before typing anything into the computer, take a deep breath or two and ask yourself if what I am doing is helping anyone. Received on Sat Nov 27 2004 - 10:43:03 CST
