Think we aren't connecting here. It's the general style I was referring to and used the "stupid" comment as an example. Nothing to do with me personally.
The echo chamber comment comes about when someone has a different view, then the writing style comes to the forefront.
When someone posts a link or experience in this thread or any other, the nature of the message board is to generate discussion. That may mean you agree or disagree, have a different experience or possibly some expertise on the subject. But if the prevailing attitude is that no, we are only suppose to echo the sentiments of the op we are quoting, I question the the purpose of the thread. If that's what we want, I'm good with that and will go back into simply being a long time listener.
