Firstly, yes, this thread has a lot of ranting which is basically a turnoff to people who don't feel the same way or who are just looking for facts or personal experiences. As I've been reading through this website, I found a great deal of information offered by people over the years which has been pushed under the more recent postings, which is factual rather than emotional (can't recall where it's all located, though).
How big a project would it be to create a "digest" thread where the "meat" of all the various threads could be placed, devoid of the emotional, non-specific ranting or personal attacks? I feel like that thread would be the MOST helpful to those wondering what's going on and who have no clue as to the dishonest nature of those two people.
If it was decided to create such a thread, it would need to be actively monitored to make sure none of the negative comments that turn people off got posted there. Just objective, factual, personal experience postings.
This is the kind of thread I would have liked to have seen originally because some of us don't have the time to weed through the bigger threads and we get turned off by the negativity. We want facts, we don't want to be brought down by negativity, and we want to choose for ourselves rather than have people pushing us to buy into taking sides. People are intelligent enough to make their own informed decisions when presented with facts and personal stories.
Thoughts, anyone?

Knmar, You know I would agree with you on your suggestion completely but it is on going process and I believe that's the difference and the advantage of this forum that members need to discourage and encourage on certain things as we go along.
And we need to understand people have different personalities and different views. IMHO, it really don't matter how accurately and properly information is presented unless the readers are truly in tuned with the poster. If anyone is really hungry for the truth of Expansions, they will go through all the information presented in this thread whether it is positive or negative and objective or nonobjective. They will sift them through like the hungry honey badger digging through the dirt for honey.
And the thread I created is my gesture to be fair with SJ. I personally donââ¬â¢t have anything to say on their products because I think generally they are suck. Yeah, some of the books and some very short sections of the DVDs could be useful and interesting. But even that usefulness is meaningless once the writersââ¬â¢ integrity has failed. We will see what will be post on there and whatever the result, it should tell us something.
IMO, SJââ¬â¢s integrity always end with the grey color. And donââ¬â¢t forget the real useful parts of their teaching obviously didnââ¬â¢t even come from them and much less they are able to hold on to its values. Maybe, except some of the Janet's recipe and Stew's nasty temper?
