Without taking sides (since I don't understand what the fight is about), may I provide a little perspective?
I'm on the cusp of becoming a "Broadway Legend" FOR THE SECOND TIME (I had a problem with my first log on and had to choose another)! And I've only been posting here for a little over a year.
What does that prove? That I have ignored Mark Twain's advice that it is better to remain silent and let people think I'm a fool than to open my laptop and remove all doubt.
And that's all it proves. It certainly says nothing about whether my posts were useful or interesting. And it is certainly nothing in which I take any pride.
As for the imagined conspiracy of member levels, it's probably true that I pay more attention to posts from those with whom I have exchanged comments before. But only because I recognize their hats, not because I've memorized their member levels.
And you, ChiChi, are most certainly among those who command my attention.
