Ya, there's a lot of people for whom every opinion is valid and the information presented is not important. There are a lot of people who value "peace" more than truth. Personally, I don't see anything emotional about it. When someone corrects me, I usually am thankful for the experience, because I learn stuff. That's the goal. To come here and learn stuff. Posting lies and half truths doesn't further that.
I'm OK with everyone sharing their opinions without fear of reprisal or some backlash.
I don't buy what you say about you valuing truth.. I think you and many here more so value a fully pro-Pentax agenda shared here without any objections to it.
Instead I think we should just accept that everything everyone says is not going to be to our satisfaction. That goes for me, that (should) goes for you, and everyone else here. The comments we find objectionable will simply be a small bump in the road.. 'did you feel that? nope' and we move on if we don't pay them much attention. But that is difficult.. to simply ignore them.. no?
And in time all our claims will be proven or disproven.. yet even if everything SnapperTim just said proves false then what? You cannot devalue his opinion any more than you already have. It was just an opinion he shared.. which is now proven incorrect.. nothing in our lives changes.
