i must be chopped liver, lol.. you could recognize that it was me that redirected this conversation in a more positive direction, tho i definitely do recognize that zapped has a much smoother delivery than do i.

and here is a shortcoming... it is actually possible to take things a couple of levels deeper than what we have now.

Without your suggestion, I probably would have tried to fix an unfixable post instead of this re-do.

What do you mean by going deeper?

you originally asked something about "who stirs the pot the most"?

i suggested that it might be better to ask "who has made profound suggestions to make things better"? (or something like that)

by going deeper, i am suggesting that if a group were to operate in a "think tank" manner, they would constantly be refining their goals and purposes, instead of just having everyone running around in random directions.

the purpose of leadership is to direct or lead the group, NOT TO BAN THEM, etc.

but i do recognize that the actual purpose of these forums is to create a clusterfuck of confusion by allowing random and anonymous persons to just run around all willy-nilly posting random articles and shouting insults at each other.

Has anyone besides me done this?

Can't people "go deeper" in groups while still having a free and open arena for ideas to be tossed around and other viewpoints to be heard?
