You REALLY need to lighten up, Michael. These discussion threads are open for all kinds of replies, even those that go off topic. As long as the Board's Rules of Conduct aren't broken we have no problem with those (off-topic) replies.

I find it disturbing and rude that you, as a new member, come along and tell me what I should, or shouldn't do here. I liken this to a large group of people who hang out every night in a favorite bar discussing all sorts of subjects. A person, new to that group, comes into the bar, moves the furniture around to his liking and then proceeds to tell that group how to act.

If you have an issue with a certain message regarding the propriety of that message you can use the "Report Post" feature which alerts the board's moderators of a potential problem. I wouldn't hold out for a favorable ruling for you in this instance, though.
