RnF clearly has a legitimate place, if for no other reason that to serve as a collection bucket for otherwise inappropriate threads.
I have not once stated that RnF should not exist. I stated that I find many RnF participants to be unnecessarily confrontational and hostile in a way that does not serve any sense of resolution or construction.

Statements like this tell me that you're missing the point. I'm not trying make some kind of statement that needs a factual inquiry. How is your beloved evidentiary standard even relevant here? I am explaining that I believe a problem exists. I then am explaining why I feel it is a problem and why I feel the problem is made worse by certain attitudes. I am explaining a belief. You want some kind of evidence of how I feel? Would you like for me to write down my feelings and post a picture? How about some interpretive dance or maybe macaroni art?

What you seem to not understand, or at least you refuse to acknowledge, is that your attitudes and actions carry ramifications beyond your own personal environment. The only thing negative about RnF is when people bludgeon others with no hope of a productive outcome. Conflict and resentment occur, but efforts should be taken to defuse them.
Promoting resentment only displays an immaturity of the highest order.
