In an organization of people who love swimming who could use using the forums to come closer together, it is discouraging to see people launching venom at each other. Someone made a comment recently about how no women were posting on one thread that was getting especially nasty.
Why would we want to when we risk getting our head bitten off for offering our POV? I seek to exchange information and make new friends, not get psychotic people on my back....

This place is kind of boring without a little controversy or trash talking, but I guess I can see what you mean. In my three years of Masters swimming I've found everyone to be overwhelmingly friendly and open. I don't know if the Masters I swim is different than everywhere else or I have just been oblivious to all this drama that is going on.
I think it is just message board drama and I have to admit I kind of like some of it. How many threads can we have about what goggles we wear?
I do really enjoy the technique opinions and I am very grateful of the advice I got. But I wouldn't be offended if someone told me I sucked.
