Not for you personally, but just in general since a lot of people are complaining about it...

The ratio of posts illustrating differing opinions on a message board should never be looked at as the ratio of opinions itself. It doesn't work that way.

If someone has a minority opinion and 20 people question it, obviously that person will feel the need to answer more than one of those posts. And why shouldn't they?

The real question, is why do people feel the need to pile on? If you are posting to question that minority opinion after 20 people said or asked the same thing and the person has already responded, maybe you don't need to throw your hat in there as well? All it does is illicit the same response (hence, creating a "vocal minority").
