I don't think it's about people being intimidated by you or others on the board, it's just exhausting to know that if someone posts something, they then have to post 4 or 5 more messages just defending their original post, even on topics when an argument or debate really isn't even necessary.
Example:
If I say I like graded cards, I then get to hear all the messages about how I'm not a true collector and how vital it is to be able to touch and feel (and smell) the actual cardboard to gain any real insight or knowledge. How everyone like me who collects graded is a slab-head that wastes their money just collecting plastic and numbers.
What's the point of comments like that? Does that make for good open discussion? Is someone's personal collecting habbit a great topic for debate?
