Thank you for responding! So many of the discussions here involve opinions rather than facts. Everyone has the right to an opinion but all opinions don't carry the same credibility. Context is important. BF comes up readily when someone Googles a cycling question. Suppose a "Googler" is interested in setting up the contact points on their bike and finds some threads. Responders will range from folks with many years and thousands of miles on the bike to rank newbies. The "Googler" would benefit from having help sorting grain from chaff. I don't think the Grumpy Gus thing would be an issue. No posts would be voted out of a thread and I think most of us here are people of good will. Sometimes folks are provoked into an unfortunate response, a rating mechanism might serve as a safety valve. I'm going to PM you the details of the "sanction." I've tried to keep this as general as I can since our current situation isn't unique in the history of BF. Thanks again for considering this.
