| (...) Are you proud of our group or the number of posts? From the messages you were sending, I got the impression that you were more interested in having the most posts and not what the group was doing. I still wouldn't call them stupid, but I found (...)

| (...) Not at all. I'm glad you are proud of it, as am I. However, the approach to this I question. I also suggest you to be proud of a different metric other than posts--instead, how many events we've run, people we've informed and (...)

If Richard's little toung-in-cheek ribbing of the high-volume groups is unwelcome, then so too must be any obiquitous post from left-field. I mean, really, I spent time typing Monty (...)
