Have to say this is an irksome and erroneous comment. If it's OK by you, I'll do the majority of the arbitrating of appropriateness around here, and both Zig and Elvis have a far more accurate image of the interplay than you on this one. No one was uncivil and no one is waiting to pounce on 'peons'.

You seem to have an overly heightened and sensitive impression of the intensity and intent of responses to a lot of what goes on here. There is a bit of a gauntlet to run in the Selections Room if you expect to be well-received, and to be honest, the threadstarter didn't get off on the right foot the other day when he retro-fitted his successful play courtesy of a 'forgot to mention I used' horse. Questions as to how he arrived at an opinion are utterly fair, and Elvis asked in a 100% 'civil' manner.
