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.
