I'm glad you've taken the time to read it.

I was concerned when I was composing it early this morning that it might be too long to get people to actually read in depth, as well as wording it to avoid mentioning <those names that cannot be mentioned> because I knew after the original opus thread locking, any similar thread by name would soon to follow, considering it's ability to inflame folks further on both sides. I think I expressed my opinion on that matter already in the original opus thread.

I just wanted to reflect a bit of history online as I've seen it over the years, and open up a dialog on why these things happen, why people do them and why folks allow themselves to be suckered or manipulated by them, as well as to be a warning to those who aren't already in the know that this stuff isn't a rare occurance.
