And then everyone else reacts to the person who got targeted for being put out about it. The OP should be put out. You should be put out. Koyote's post shouldn't be tolerated by people who want a discussion board to be about discussion, not aggression.

You know what works really well to limit seemingly valueless posts? You ignore them. Someone asks a dumb question, leave the thread alone and it will disappear off the bottom of the page in a day.

So instead of potentially interesting discussion about what is and isn't Eagle and its features, we have the script from Mean Girls. Because a couple of not nice people think the topic is beneath them.
