Nope, commercialisation has nothing to do with it.

The fact is that, what some people see as humour (calling people dorks,
companies dogs and insulting names etc) other people see as insults.

I'm trying to keep some peace _before_ flame wars develop.  No one wants to
subscribe to a forum where people are constantly making comments about one
another.

Anyway, your input is appreciated - so this forum can be used for discussing
the sharemarket, I suggest that if anyone has any further comments to make,
they should Email me direct at

bendutton@sharechat.co.nz

and spare using the forum Email address.
