haha Gerritt ....no, no...I do not want in. I like my freedom.
Just to be fair to the newbies as I too was one not that long ago. It does take time to gain some respect and there are certain members who because of the friendships formed, do take a different role when one of their "friends" is being...for lack of a better word...criticized.
Take you and I for example. I hated your guts. hahaha That's not true Gerritt...I am just trying to bring some humour here. But...one time you did tell me something that yes hurt me, but also woke me up. I was utilizing this board to help me with a personal issue. You pointed out to me how wrong it was for me do that. I didn't like hearing it, but I respected you for that. I now attend psycho therapy twice a week, am on anti-depressants and run into walls on occasion. (again just kidding)
There is always something to learn from constructive criticism.
