"It's like those software license agreements. Does anyone really read all that, or just hit "accept"?" It's slightly different than a software licensing agreement. I should hope that people give an "all or none" reading: namely that people read posts with enough attention as to understand what others are saying or ignore them completely. Anyway, here are my two probably unwanted cents regarding Andy's post: 1. You do raise the question in readers of your post: "What happened last night that was so bad?" 2. This pent-up anger isn't just from qb itself. To use myself as an example, I _hate_ sending E-mails and not getting a response within due time. I consider it not nice. As a result, I got so fed up that I let off steam in an outburst where I shouldn't have. I apologized for it, but it shouldn't have happened in the first place. Many people, myself included, could have prevented it. 3. Sometimes "CHILL OUT" isn't the answer. Anger has to be expressed sometimes, or else it will result in "boiling over and chaos." People were right to be offended by some my stupid rants. We were right to be angry at teams for switching tournaments relatively close to their dates. People have a right to be angry. Let them be if it's well-founded. We do have to calm down and stop personalizing everything, myself included, but sometimes it's not the answer, and on the flip side, a little rational constructive criticism couldn't hurt, could it?
