    Yep, I've noticed a few who tend to drag threads downhill fast.

    I'll do you one better. I have seen a "gang" of people all take a shot at one guy that they do not like, he fires back, then the perps fall on thier butts and scream about how this mean person always drags threads down when he enters. I've seen the victim of this organized trolling receive points for retaliating.
    Thats really something to see. You have to read quite a few posts to catch the perps in action, and once you do, it's aweful hard to prove to people who do not read the forums much, nor follow the perps for a while and see how they operate.
    Fortunatly, the worst of these have been driven from the forum now amongst a cloud of "why are all the good guys leaving????" threads.
    Thank God our current leadership is proactive about recognizing and "discouraging" this type of online bullying.
    Precision in the wrong place is only a placebo.

    I've only noticed it in the casting/reloading threads that are about what brand is best or worst(take your pick). Mostly on progressive presses.

    You are correct. I know because I just so happen to live a wee bit south of I-10.

    Damn, I live less than a mile north of I-10, no wonder everyone calls me a Yankee.

    I think I figured it out I live in Maine and just drove south to York, PA to post.
    I think that's really how a thread goes south! But then again I've been wrong before.
