Thanks

I joined at: 01-17-2008, so not exactly new, but I haven't been around as some of the 'old folks either.
I also tended to stay outside the forum and just look at the pretty pictures (which is mostly what this site is about), then the how-to section came up and I started participating in the forums more.
I guess in cases like these a lot of people tend to "butt out" as they feel they have no say, or little say, or rather they don't want to step on any toes. But it is important for stuff like this to be aired once in a while, or else there will be an explosion out of nowhere with furious posts about things that has been beneath the surface. The way its being done here is just brilliant. Everybody, though very sensitive about certain stuff (and who can blame them - see the martial arts style quote I had earlier for why that is

) they keep a level head and just want to get to the bottom of the problem without resorting to name calling and other things.
Again I have to give Kudos to the community here - I'm not sure everybody "gets" how good this place really is, and how this thing here was bound to happen, but happened in such a way that its actually made this place better (well time will tell, but I'm pretty sure this is a good thing to get out/off our collective chests).
