All the while Scott is trying to run a business and giving you guys a free forum to converse about tech problems. What it turned into was a digital war. While the lounge is some what calm (for the time being) the Steam Room was a ßitch/flame/whining room. To ask Scott to get involved (MOD or no MOD at fault) is beyond rude and insensitive to what he has to do for us. Just from reading and watch I have to say it is likes 4th graders peeing in their own sandbox.
The reason for my post was to stand up and say" Hey Scott, you don't know me very well but I want to support you in the small way I can and stay out of associating with this". The less grief for him is all that I can afford.
I hope that people in here can read this and understand without spazzing out and try and flame, I hope.

Antimatter says "I stopped contributing to general tech support when I found out that Scott had moved up in the world, selling out to internet.com."
Why would that effect how Antimatter posts to the board?
I'm all for selling out. That's the American dream. Bust your *** , build something, get rich. Nothing wrong with that.
Deliver me from Swedish furniture!

I assume that the guests would have been the ones generating revenue by using the services in banner ads.
As it is, I had been posting when I could in tech-to-tech...until recent events turned me off posting at all.
To prove something, one must first try to disprove it.
