Because it is a fairly interesting topic, seeing how posters react, reading the arguments. Feeling the hostile atmosphere in this thread. How people try to be objective or either defend a side.
Fights and discussions make things for more entertaining. It is just that it is simply redundant to post all this. If you have to ban me so be it, but I really like this forum because it has good posters and this game is great. Feel free to remove me to keep the quality of this forum at a maximum and get rid of all the bad posters.
I'd really rather not have to ban anyone, or do anything moderator-like. This forum is very nicely self-moderating for the most part, and aside from obvious spammers and occasional reminders about language I think I've only had 2 or 3 cases in the last 2 years where I've actually had to pick up the hammer (and not always use it). The hammer cannot create a community like this, it can only defend it, and even that only if used very, very carefully.
I can understand the interest in seeing how people react to hostility. I've been fascinated at how different people handle themselves at conflicting demonstrations at a parade, for example. But taking bitter shots at one another here just makes a lot of customers uncomfortable, and we don't want that to happen.
