What a conceded, stuck up snob you are.
Basically your whole post comes down to you not wanting "those kinds of
people." At least that is how I read it. But of course what am I to
expect from someone who sends poster boards to gatherings telling people
how they should play the game?
On the one hand you folks complain that articles are written without
ever getting information from letterboxers themselves, but on the other
hand, when asked, you berate the reporter and tell them they should not
write the article, that it will attract the wrong type of people. Well,
you are going to have some give and take in anything, and I think these
articles have attracted lots of the right kinds of people too.
