Thanks for clarifying. I can see how it was of extreme importance to express no opinion and how that lack of opinion
could be swayed to the negative as equally as it could be swayed toward the positive.
For everything I love about this forum, it also feels like the "grumpy old man hangout" sometimes for that reason, just saying. Think happy thoughts, be positive, you don't have to inject negativity into everything just to see that it's been done you know. Yet, I’ve already been called incompetent, and told that my passion for small business may or may not be a bad thing within my brief return. Considering the low volume of activity altogether, that's not very welcome feeling. It's why I tend to not return for long periods of time. Perhaps that's the point I don't know. There's just more than enough places on the internet where nearly every interaction feels like it has to contain a negative element (reddit, Facebook, etc), I tend to prefer escapes from them these days.
Anyway, <3 from this side.
