Actually, "Opium of the People" sounds exactly like something that Oleg might add to me. Oleg, unlike many of the people who hang out here has a well developed and sophisticated sense of humor, and therefor doesn't take himself so seriously.

We might all take a lesson.

That's not sophisticated. I've been in the forums for 8 years now, and have never seen Oleg take a swipe (even in jest) at the community. He may have wanted to, and I wouldn't blame him for wanting to, but it's not something I see him doing. If he has an issue with someones comments he addresses it personally and maturely. That was neither, and IMO alienates.

I HAVE heard him (er... read) say things like people always expect more... and that sometimes their expectation is unrealistic or impossible to implement, but I've never seen a childish swipe at anyone. I've always admired his restraint when he's been criticized as much as he has.

So no. I don't think he added that...... which goes to my original point. If it's admin/moderators, they are adding to the climate in here. And that's not right.

I should have been clearer.

We are looking into the tags on postings. Regardless, of their value to members.

Are you sure Oleg said that?..I thought it was Karl or was it Groucho?....:-)

In 1843, Marx published On the Jewish Question, in which he distinguished between political and human emancipation, and made an early examination of the role that religion played in society.[3] That same year he published Contribution to Critique of Hegel's Philosophy of Right, in which he dealt even more substantially with religion, and which contains his famous remark that "religion is the opiate of the people".[3] Both of those works were written shortly before he left Cologne

Thanks NM. I'm not trying to be an obtuse jerk here. I'm just frustrated at the atmosphere in the IL2 community. These TAGS don't seem to do anything (for me) but aggravate and add to that climate.

Jesus wept some members of this forum seriously need a group unbunching of their collective panties...
