Best I can figure from some conversations Bike Forums isn't what it used to be. Guess it used to be a little friendly sharing among friends kind of thing. Of course I could be wrong about that since I wasn't there. Now it is but one web site among many owned by a company whose business is web marketing. At the same time there has been a change in our society. As was posted above there are people who will argue just for the personal entertainment value. In short, life moves on. I do my best to not stress unless the subject is near and dear to my heart.

One thing I don't understand. Well, lots of things but this is one of them. Why "block" a poster? It never occured to me to shut the door to someone just because they were obnoxious or had a viewpoint different than mine.
