I don't understand, you complain that nobody is active on the forum but insult the only active person.
You didn't even comment on any of the 4 other replies. If you want to insult Ralph so bad why don't you just private message him.
I'll tell you why. Private messaging another member, let alone meeting others in real life, requires determination, social and emotional intelligence, and above all, at least decent communication skills. Based on my observations, the initiator of this thread has none of the above.
This person often posts on impulse, without taking into consideration the effect his words might have on the collective. The tone used is dismissive and abrasive, without contributing anything significant to our common piscatorial cause. It is people like them that have discouraged me from forums and social media in general.
