And while I don't want to censor anyone just for having contrarian views (I have many of my own, mostly about things that have nothing to do with OOTP), I also feel like I have no desire to give oxygen to the threads of the seemingly growing number of people who appear to be coming here simply to win arguments, who respond to any attempt to respectfully disagree with them by resorting to insults, labels, condescension, and escalation, who have no interest in actual civil dialogue and can't even entertain the idea that someone other than them might have an intelligent argument as well, unless that argument is precisely in line with their own.

At this point, in many of these threads, it is David Watts' comedic/absurdist interjections that make the most sense to me. Pork and beans indeed!

Well said.
