I hope you weren't referring to me as a troll. I have never trolled here and don't plan on it. I an seriously concerned about the site. Wayne and I, though we may disagree on some things here and there, have been friendly for quite some time.
In fact, you'll notice that I really haven't said much here about this whole split, until it started to affect the visitors to the site and their exodus.
P.S. It is the same thing your 2nd paragraph describes that is the base for my concern, and that concern goes both ways, even if the situation were reversed with the (as you call it) "red trolls" doing the "registration of presence."
