Alumiyum and some others don't mind the threads, some others don't like the threads, and there are others sitting on the fence. That reality of difference of opinions never ends a discussion unless people just get tired of discussing. LOL.

I find referring to recruitment threads as "circle jerks"/"mental masturbation", PNMs as dumb, parents who post as helicopter parents, personal insults, and the assumption that recruitment threads have nothing at all to contribute to be extremely insulting and snotty. We all have our pet peeves and such.
Pretty much everything Drolefille, myself, and others have posted on the topic can be summed up in the bolded of your post.
