Do not let some of the "forum elitists" get to you. Many of them estimate your age and knowledge by how many posts you have made.[X(] You will soon know who they are.

This forum is not a country club, and there is no pre-posting initiation requiring to you to quietly crawl in, post only concurring an non-oppositional post for a non-determined period, and whimper while you lick a bunch of feet. Say what you have to say and ignore the clamoring of the criers.

Do not let the elitists dictate what words you shall use to say what you have to say. As long as what you say is not in violation of the forum rules, tell those that do not like it to go fly a kite. If you watch closely, you will see many hypocritical posts.

Some of what you have said rings true. Your opinions may not be completely factual, and they may have some heat to them, but they are your opinions.

Jeez! What a condescending invite to someone! [:'(]
