Court of public opinion says no.

@Alex,

You're welcome.

I think some people didn't understand that my post was meant to show that while not everyone likes every post, there are a bunch of us who appreciate every post that's made. What I don't like is those who are insulting or rude because they disagree with what gets posted as articles.

If I read an article that I don't like I usually remain silent, but today I wanted to have my two cents and let WI know that even when I don't like something you always have my support and thanks for all the articles.

Pax.

your comment is being downvoted because it is devoid of all content that is not raw vitriolic insults.

"What I don't like is those who are insulting or rude because they disagree with what gets posted as articles."

If your post had been made in reply to one of those people, I would have upvoted it as an intelligent and germane response. As it is, out of the blue criticism to no-one in particular, I couldn't hit the downvote emphatically enough. If you have a good counter-argument, you must either wait for someone to make the argument to begin with, or you're just trolling...

@Artificial,

I just couldn't wait for someone to trash an article, as this has been eating at me for some time now. Plus I wanted to make it clear that while I didn't like the article myself, there was no need for me to demean or disparage the Author or WI.

As for your downvote, I have no problem with that especially since you were kind enough to explain your reasoning.

I hope you will try to understand that I just had to "say" something because every time I see the rude comments instead of a calm message it sticks in my craw.

Pax.
