I guess you missed the stolen valor and TPG discussion?But I have found some will go to great lengths to advance their position, including the use of language and tactics shown above and some even more egregious behaviour. I became involved in this thread again not to debate the cadre and training issue, but to address this ugliness.
You answered your own question "this is just a forum." Your or my views on how this forum should be run is irrelevent. Since we agreed to it when we became a member of this forum, moderators has full discretion on what goes on this forum.
I think we can agree that we will disagree what an "egregious behaviour" might be on this forum.
