For the longest, there has been so much pain 
and suffering here that it has become quite 
unpleasant to post because of all of the 
torment that people face over some 
misinterpretation of  animanga forum protocol, 
that is only found by way of experience both 
good and especially BAD.

Being new is dangerous here. There are few 
guidelines, until you set yourself up for even 
greater embarassment being attached to your 
name or `handle`, for doing something 
"stupid" according to the "peanut gallery" here 
^-^.

Small seemingly unimportant issues become 
the basis for full scale warfare and bridge 
burning. Is it at all worth it? 

The great people that used to collect and post 
here and add insights fade out of view and are 
so disappointed in that they don`t care to post 
or come here because of all of the clan-like 
attacks. Even worse, people quit the hobby 
because of it. Sense this is not only a hobby 
for cels but also about the people and the 
community of collectors themselves.

There have been quite a few very influential 
veterans that I have spoken with about this off-
board. Most of you know them by name if not 
more so. Some people are just disgusted 
about it all. Can`t it be alleviated somehow 
without all of the personal attacks and one-
upsmanship going on ---all of the time!?

I propose that we TRY to end all of this 
unwanted bickering and nonsense and create 
sometype of FAQ/Board Rules on the Menu 
section on the left side border at least. Maybe 
a READ ME FIRST (before I jump into a pile of 
%$#") page befor
