I think that the greatest drawback of boards is that they are anonomous, therefore they invite rudeness and personal attacks. You see it everywhere, and it drives away many that you'd love to talk to. Almost worse for me is the condescending 'come back when you know enough' type comments, and that is what I hope to avoid. That is what I hope is not prevalent here. I want to learn from the experienced folks, but maybe insert some new ideas that they could think about and accept at face value (instead of just hating that ebay, the internet, and tpg's have changed the industry forever). Things change, they always do, but the best way to preserve the 'best of the industry' is to share and encourage others to learn good things and care about the hobby. The smug attacks always seem counter productive to me.
