Unfortunately, these vile few post often and make life miserable. The personal attacks run rampant with them with no negative consequences. I suspect because they themselves are part of the Mod team.

Thanks, -Wade Englund-
LOL...I thought the same thing. There sure is an unhealthy obsession with MAD here...
I don't mind what MADB has become in recent months. That might be because I seem to have (unconsciously) limited my posting there. I'm tending to just participate in threads that hold interest for me. Well, actually, that was always true, but there are fewer such threads around these days, I suppose.
It just so happens that the threads I'm actually interested in seem to not be attracting the leaner, greener, meaner TBM's. So, actual dialog is possible.
Hey Doc Steuss--
I think I started a thread re: a discussion we were having (possibly a break-out of the time thread), but it died a quick death. I'll try to find it.
If Doc Steuss participates on a thread, you can be assured that it's either a really good one, or a really bad one, or possibly a mediocre one. ;-)

Which doesn't make for very substantive or very interesting conversation, actually.
Do you really find Scratch One and Scratch Two's interminable admit-that-you-ran-a-campaign-to-smear-Mike-Quinn threads gripping, beyond the first seventy pages or so?
