Where have our members gone? (or, the self-absorption of Evan)

Chas,

"I don't think we drive them away from this site with bad behavior." Yes, Sir you do. Your condescending post is one of the examples. I'm sorry for you. I mean you no harm.

I agree with sdfletch. Remember Chas, acknowledging that you have a problem is the first step to correcting it.

Nor I you.

If you view my post as condescension then we can agree to disagree. In no way was I patronizing you.

I asked for a serious and simple explanation of your views of what you feel is 'wrong' with the site. I was hoping for a two-way (or more) discussion of your observations. You have apparently refused to present those views. Telling someone 'you don't get it' and then politely offering pity because of their perceived ignorance smacks of an agenda or shoulder chip. Not very friendly, mature or sporting.

If you do feel we 'don't get it' here, why are you a member and keep coming? There is no evidence that you're a Cobra person, a techie, hot rodder, biker or even a car person.

Patrick, our Village Idiot is having a ball with this. Ignore him. I am honestly trying to get your views.

So Chas, just how long have you harbored this hidden hostility towards women?
