If you make a post with your opinion on a forum, any forum, it is for the purpose to encourage others to also comment on the topic stating their opinion. You obviously don't like that others have their own opinion on the topic that differs from yours and it's evident from your posts. To say that someone with a differing opinion is "drawing it out by offering your opinions" which in turn in the cause of your long blocks of text is very narrow-minded. If you didn't want others to state their opinions, you should have not posted on a public forum.

As to the long blocks of text... many of us have done it at times depending on the topic. But the big difference is that it's broken up into paragraphs with punctuation, proper capital letters, etc. Reading a long block of poorly constructed run-on thoughts in one huge section honestly makes my eyes bleed and I generally just skim over the text, often I just ignore it all. Add in the all caps which is generally considered yelling and a lot of people end up passing it up without reading it.

That's all that PeterT was trying to point out trying to make your visits here more enjoyable for you and everyone you interact with on the forums. Take the advice or not.

And it might be a good idea if you consider that maybe your way isn't always the best way for everyone else and respect that other people will have differing opinions than you that are just as valid as yours. Although I agree with you generally on the topic of wanting all electronics to have batteries capable of being replaced by the consumer, but I'll just avoid buying any pricy electronics without that option and not waste time ranting about it.
