GBR, I totally understand what you are trying to say but you are barking up the wrong tree. He can't get your drift that maybe he would have a little more credibility if he would talk about "a positive" from time to time. I will give you an example, there is no bigger cheerleader here than mickeybritt and I have been critical at times of his rah rah, but recently mickey questioned the action of IDCC on couple of things and that gave me a whole new respect for mickey, because HE (not the board as a whole) was able to have some balance and openmindedness about the questionables that surround IDCC.

Once, there is nothing difficult to understand now that you put it that way. For you to say "I have no need to try to prove that I am balanced", is very clear and understandable to the reader. However for you to say, " I will not make any positive comments on IDCC because it would simply reiterate what others already contribute", is simply inconsistent with the fact that you allow yourslf to reiterate negative comments that you AND others say and have said over the years.

Positve comments are off limits because they have already been stated. Negative comments are made regardless of whether they have been stated or not.

As long as you acknowledge that you are attempting to balance the forum with your unbalanced perspective, there appears to be no misunderstanding.

ONCE: By being so one-sided you will NEVER appear "balanced", or even give balance, as you will be too easily "discounted". That may apply to others as well.
