Trash talk happens a lot on the internet and a lot of people take it very personally. People are much easier to be offended as well as become defensive. I'm sure if we we're all together in a room, we'd get along great. Sometimes the internet brings out the worst in people and sometimes the best.
I guess I should think before I speak. Then again, that seems to be a lot of peoples problem these days..
I'm sure I didn't offend too many people and if that's the case, I apologize.
Thanks for the history lesson!

That's cool, Brett. The apology is appreciated.
What you say is very, very true.
People on the internets do tend to dish out more insults and aggro than if they were in the same room with the person on the other end.
We like to keep it family friendly and information and help oriented on here. That suits the majority of SVX fans.
However, we are aware this frustrates some people who like to get down and get personal, especially when pride may be at stake. In the past we have been guilty of letting things go on too long, specifically so that people can air a grievance or give a heartfelt opinion.
The mods try to strike a balance so that people can speak their minds. There is usually little interference unless it gets TOO personal.
