Lets back that up for a second. You mean to tell me that you're getting tired of having *your* comments being sidelined by a group of people who like to comment about a given topic but have clearly a hobbyist[1][2] knowledge about said topic or have only the faintest grasp of historical precedent on which the topic itself is based?
On a wargaming list?!?
Come on now. :)
It's supposed to be fun damn it. Keep it that way.
[1] SciFi novels don't count in and of themselves here. Neither does analyzing the Naval combat footage in Star Wars or Buck Rogers. ;)
[2] This isn't directed at anyone in particular mind you.
