I do enjoy debate, but please, easy on personal attacks hard on mis information.
Report them to the mods please. Will result in a warning.

For a start, try to perceive the essential difference between you pigheadedly pushing your opinion as a purblind fan..
Thanks for helping me out there, appreciate it! 8)

Sarcasm?

Whatever.. anyhow.. I'd certainly be prepared to give you another "helping" too, G-J,
- but I must duly herein note: The Forum Rating System does not allow votes to be awarded - to banned members..

Look how many thread are dominated by ongoing arguments without either side being willing to drop it and concede to agree to disagree...
Strad, there is a difference between 'owning' an opinion/stating it as such.. & holding/promulgating it - as fact..

Especially when the matter under contention.. is capable of appraisal on a technical validity/root cause analysis, level..

So ongoing 'ranting' reiterations.. of 'deluded' emotive-based opinion..

( yes, deluded - under the technical definition;
- viz: determinedly holding onto a fixed, false, belief - in the face of reasoned, validated evidence - to the contrary)..

..which are, by perseveration, seemingly predicated to serve no useful purpose.. this is surely.. tantamount to trolling..

& must inevitably draw increasing sanction, of one kind (member downvotes), or another (moderation intervention)..

Would any members be interested in being able to selectively opt out of the FRS scheme?

It does seem to be a focus for contention, & for myself,
I'd be good with an 'N/A' - in place of a vote balance number..
