I agree with the OP.
As to why, my theory is a recessive gene causing spinal fluid blockage in a small percent of the population. This blockage is aggravated by constant swinging of the upper body, like when you are riding a Doo and trying to steer.
To call them bullies is a bit of a overstatement. Maybe "internet bullies" is a better term and should be coined for social media cause they do gang up with the the leaders cheering them on as they take advantage of newbies questions, much like a schoolyard.
I am sure if they talked their talk in a group of actual sledders, without a nudge, nudge or wink, wink and a chuckle they would find it hard to keep their helmets on.
To the adminstrators. The longest threads here are dominated by a few. Usually for negative effect with profanity and name calling (again like a schoolyard). It's totally unnecessary (some might even refer to it as a lack of manners) and locks out possible opinions or help from more mature or realistic readers.
A good rebutal can be very informative and fun but why bother if by the end of the first page it is already turned into a bash fest. I think it hurts this site and is a shame because the broader the opinion base the more likely real info can be had. Everybody deserves to be heard without the fear of negative suppression.
So fricken eh! That's the god damed truth from a Polass kissin newbie.
