I guess, Chris may refer to cheerleading some people instead of stricter critique and blander comments. PhotoNet has such a ultra critical Leica Forum from which many RFF have migrated to. Insults and/or sarcasm are not abnormal "there". People are different, and it is better to have different types of sites to accomodate different tastes and endurance levels.
Maybe I am mistaken here.

I agree with these notions, especially about the allusion to a layer of sago

OK, Frank, I shall stay away from threads posted by the forum owner in the RFF News
It might be a cultural thing, you know.
After I moved to California, a German friend once told me:
He: Roland, so now you have to do it se American way
Me: How is that ?
He: Do good .........
.......... and speak about it !
Cheers,
Roland.

Roland: It would not be cheerleading to state that your contributions on RFF are "good" for the site.

I think everyone on these photo sites knows the difference between respectful disagreement and The Jerry Springer Show

David,
Mathematicians never got over the fact that Statisticians are higher paid than Mathematicians. It simply refelcts the usefulness of the knowledge.

Stewart,
Statisticians provide politicians with information; the politicians either use the information, use it, or "modify" it and then use it.

Mein Lieber Herr Ferider,

Ja Ja und nochmals Ja!

edited: many people have a hard time saying the word "statistics".
Now say it in German.
