So my final suggestion on the whole situation is this. Why don't you start a new thread on the topic. You can take a step back and listen rather than hear. We can take a step back and explain rather than get angry.

Yes, a new thread would calm down some pretty venemous attacks. I've personally got to find a way to let this argument go.
If Dr. Bob makes a mis-step, whether it's with this board or who he's blocked, he gets attacked
like flies on a cow patty.
Why can't we just be grateful for the really hard work he has put in here?
I personally don't give a rat's ass if there's an old-timers board or not. But when I hear people calling old-timers names and such, I know the emotional level of who I'm dealing with. I didn't care one way or the other for this board until the attacks started and felt that there is a really mean spirited overtone to this.
Why do y'all give a shit? You can read the board, comment on psb. I and others go to all the boards still.
I was going to say that I'd just leave the whole mess for y'all to deal with. But I've avoided confrontation long enough. Low self-esteem. I've never thought in my 48 years that my opinion mattered; chalk it up to an alcohlic family of origin.
I'm not running from this one.
No more personal attacks, no more,"Gee, Dr. Bob, these people are screwed up but you're a doctor. How could you be so unwise?
If it's not this, it will be something else that you are all sure should be totally different.
Good, go start a board on Yahoo.
The fact is, we have supported this board and if we didn't early on, PB could have died, although I doubt that. A lot of us didn't have knowledge that pb2000 was starting. It could also maybe help get some of the really beloved old timers back that left becuse of this kind of BS.
Y'all are shooting yourselves in the foot.Next..
Y'all want a debate..bring it on.
