It's better for TMS that there be discussion about a topic that some people find tired, rather than no discussion at all.

If you find this subject tired, just skip it. It brings other people back to the site, and while they're here they might post on something you find more interesting.

There's a lot of inertia to having a successful discussion board.

Well, Emil provided reference for why I dislike these threads so much. The forum just doesn't seem to serve any particularly productive purpose at the moment, rather a medium to push personal agendas through. That's why it bothers me I guess, I was expecting a much more professional environment from such a place, considering a lot of people posting here are in responsible positions.

It's hopeless though, even if Synozeer posted his opinion here, it'd cause more of problem for him probably. Neither side is going to be happy with a decision that favors the other and he probably knows that.

I think that's exactly it.
