You are right. If you take a negative post and go back and read the posters other posts, you will usually see that the poster harps on the same negative thing, over and over and over.

You soon will see a posters screen name and think...Now what is wrong with so and so today and what is he going to say negative about this place?

The same is true of positive people. When I see certain screen names, I know that their posts will be fair, well documented, thoughtful and accurate and if they are upset, there is good reason for it.
