Great advice contained in your post!! CHIP HOW YOU WANT!! Excellent!

I may disagree wholly with the fact that this in the only place available to ask about chips though....

And probably the one about 1000's of users monthly, but hey, maybe....

As for constitutional rights violations, there is none here, its a privately run board with moderated content, as it should be.

You say "It's five people who are bored and have nothing better to do than demand random people drop a hobby they like for no better reason than "because I said so".
No one said that ever. And is it bored or calling out bad behavior that isn't addressed through the channels you suggest?

You also say "...all the fighting that happened because of all the political posts....." I haven't seen that here at all, and am happy not to see politics!

Chip On!!

PS if it wasnt for the fact that the show was coming next week and the disservice some do this board is usually spam filled and slow, this is the most activity Ive seen in years here!
