Also, it is sort of funny that 10 of your 33 posts are in Political forums on a BMW board  |

I am afraid you missed my point.
I recognize the difference and make the distinction between "chatter" and "talking politics" and when it digresses to "obsessive, silly and inconsequential" posts. From what I have been reading most recently of your posts, it seems like they are starting to voice what some (me), may interpret as somewhat of a superior attitude along with unpleasant sarcasm. Don't get me wrong. I appreciate well placed appropriate sarcasm, but yours are not of that vein.
Oh, by the way, I also went thought a short phase of experimenting using various "Smiles" but grew tired of their silliness, realizing that they ultimately can and usually do distract and detract from the point being made in the narrative. For such serious topics they tend to trivialize and juvenilize you and your points, having the opposite intended effect.
As far as posts go, as a previous owner of two BMW X5's and with my wife currently having a 335ci, more than 2/3's of my posts in this forum are on BMW-related topics, primarily for X5's and the X6, (sort of appropriate for the BMW X5world forum, don't you think....).
From what I can see the vast majority of your posts, of the 14,854 posts, (and counting.... at 11.3 posts per day!), have been made in the "Lounge" and now the politics sub-forum, and are non-BMW related. Are you still interested in discussing BMW's at all or just focusing on politics?
I am curious. Do you also do a "cut & past" of your posts here on some other political blog which would be a more appropriate venue for this topic and where you would be exposed to even more different opinions? If so, which one?
