Whichever way you look at it, this forum is a fantastic resourse, with bang-up-to date contributions from people with access to inside information and images. Individual contributors will come and go, but no one person, or even group of people is more important than the broader entity.
Not surprisingly, some members or ex-members flatter themselves that the whole thing has gone downhill since they withdrew their input, but in reality this is not the case, and the board enjoys the input of new members with their own valuable contributions.
But having said all of that, it is still just an internet forum, and displays the antagonism and slight disfunction amongst a proportion of its members that you will find on just about EVERY forum and discusssion group on the internet. Some individuals just love to bicker and squabble, and others rather enjoy reading all agro. But almost always, it is a matter of choice to adopt this mode of behaviour, or alternatively to contribute with courtesy and good humour, as by far the majority of members choose to.
