It is apparent that there are a few posters that seem to make posts that I see as negative: negative opinions about performance, teams, players, and coaches; challenges to other posters; casting those that have different opinions into classes; a general lack of respect. There have been more of that kind of posting recently, which has made my experience here more negative. I've recently thought about walking away and leaving this board to them.
On the other hand, there are posters that bring light to this board. Good inside info, often breaking news; Good historical info; Good outside info. Some are apparently former athletes and bring knowledge & viewpoints that I don't have. Their expertise & effort at making an informative post helps me to enjoy the sports more. They're the ones that I feel deserve +1s. Without the +1/-1, I'll have to remember to say "Thanks" in other ways. Thanks guys & gals.
This. So. Much. This.
Also, I've noticed that the person who coined the phrase "More signal. Less noise." Has stopped posting.
