clearly, this whole picture thing has gotten out of control. i sense there is so much ill feeling on this board, and the "lets gang up" attitude is rampant. Further, sarcasm seems to be the highest form of wit for those who dont want to throw in their 2 cents directly. now iv'e probably stepped on a few peoples toes with this post, and im sure some will love to persecute me for this. Some of the replys from the initial "open letter" have come from people which i have traded chips with, and others who i have not, but yet some of the posts still seem uncharacteristic for these people. i urge many of you to please consider what you are writing before you hit 'post message'. While chip trading had grown in popularity, its still relatively small, so i would imagine many people who still want to trade would want as many people as possible to trade with, and therefore shouldnt want to creat any ill feeling. I look forward to trading with many of you in the future, but if petty things get in the way, it doesnt look good for anyone.
cheers,
Andre
