I do have a horse in this race. Last time I checked and from the beginning, I am the horse leading the pack.

Have we talked about Power yet?

Attacks on members here, especially those that participate on a regular basis here, I use my Power. It's really quite simple. Attack the issue with substantial debate. I have to draw a line eventually when this is not done. If not, it degrades my agenda and turns members away. I, unlike our government, will not sacrifice good members of society over someone that seems to be here, well, for themselves or an agenda outside of the group. If I can't tell what your agenda is from erratic behavior, and you're not providing us with intellectual opinion based on substance, then I have no choice but to believe your attacks are with a self centered purpose.

There are members here that I don't quite agree with on some post or replies, but I attempt to be subtle to getting my point across using my developed opinion, sometimes offering a source that guides that opinion. I simply find some people are counter productive in theory and opinion reaching for empty conclusions. But my purpose here is to sway that to open a new path to a new developed opinion. I'll keep an open mind to yours if you keep yours open for me and the members. Using the guidelines mentioned above.
