I wasn't suggesting anyone shouldn't express their opinion. I'm concerned with the way that opinion is being expressed. Saying someone is dishonest, if that's your opinion, isn't something I would object to. Making them the butt of silly jokes is demeaning and that's not the kind of thing I'm accustomed to in here.
This forum is generally pretty polite and mature even when there's disagreement. This thread looked like it might be moving away from that and I said so.
I'm a pretty avid reader and ereaders and their technology fascinates me and this forum has been a good source of information and ideas. I'm also retired and is a fun way to spend my time. I want to encourage it to stay that way.
I'm really amazed at the reaction to my post. I assumed that it would either be agreed with or ignored. I'm not sure why it's upset anyone although it obviously has.
