As cumbersome to navigate as these forums are, I think ball rating posts is probably the worst aspect of them. I've seen good posts rated 1 ball and bad posts rated 5 balls. It seems it's either a) a popularity contest, b) whimsical voting, c) vindictive retaliation, or d) all of the above. Seriously, what's the point?

*disclaimer: I expect this post to get 1 balled repeatedly by people who have nothing better to do.

Thanks. I normally do search before creating a new thread, but I'll admit I got lazy with this one. I'll post my thoughts in your thread.

No worries. I didn't take it that way. But an entirely new thread is pointless when there's already an active discussion taking place elsewhere.

Your post is actually a perfect example of what he's saying.

Exactly, so let's continue in the linked thread.
