| | Posted: | | | | Another voice of reason is away, then I can't say that I'm all that surprised, though... I have been reading the forum quite actively in the past few days and the atmosphere of late has turned - to use the word you yourself used somewhere - toxic. More than usual, that is. I don't write here often at all, but I have thought of doing the same. Hopefully things are better when you decide to return  | | | Mika

I have decided to take a break from the forums for a while. That's sad news indeed. As Rick said, you'll be thoroughly missed, and not only for putting in a voice of reason when needed. | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

I have decided to take a break from the forums for a while. I for one will miss your kindness and valor in trying to make the forums a better place. I do understand your frustration however. You have always been a voice of reason Kathy and for that I applaud your endeavors and convictions.  Rory | | | DVD Profiler for iOS as of 3/5/2013

| | Posted: | | | | That's understandable Kathy. I don't even post that much in the "serious threads" in this forums as I do in other forums I'm a member of...for reasons I won't mention. Come back soon though! | | | | Corey |

| | Posted: | | | | Who could blame you. You've been great in this, but it's an uphill battle on an icy slope.
I'm not prone to headaches, but I've had one building as I've read today. It tests the patience and resolve to see lofty words expressed only to be followed by actions that lack the resolve to honor the spirit of reconciling. It seems to me that many have admirably demonstrated humility only to get generalizations put their way. Others it seems have wanted to test the waters before getting out of the rapids (sorry for mixed metaphoria).
Much as I love this program and some if the folks here, I don't think these forums currently deserve more than apathy. And it feels awful to type that. |

I have decided to take a break from the forums for a while. I can understand you. For the first time I blocked a few people in the forums. I hope peace will one day come to the forums but will not keep my breath for it. | | | | Unfortunately, I can't use DVDprofiler at the moment due to lack of a Windows computer. |
