Ok, then I will have the last word.
I will seriously take on board what you have said and consider it.
If my contributions are truly drowning out other would be posters, then that is not a good thing.

In situations where I have self doubt, I usually apply the "what if everybody did as I do" rule.
And I ask myself if everybody was equally prolific, verbose and opinionated in their contributions as I am, would that be such a bad thing for the forum?

At the moment I'm torn, because I desperately want to tell Chazisland what a great result he's had, but then I'm just opening myself up for more criticism.
You're quite right, I would need a psychologist to help me understand why wanting to congratulate someone would be such a bad thing to do.

Is it really better to be like you Atlantaguy and sit back, not contribute much and be critical of those that do?
But, as I said, I will think about your remarks. I just wish they had come from someone who IS a positive influence on the forum, as they would be in better context.
