I really do feel that was possible here; it's only a random occurrence that certain members just simply didn't happen to see this thread.

Trust me, I've seen this issue get VICIOUS between Fleetwood Mac fans.
(And, see above for the discussion of that.)
I was simply trying to remind people to try to keep it fun, keep their sense of humor,
and not get angry with each other. So far that seems to be the case.
I'm glad that's the way the cards happen to have fallen - this particular time around.
Basically I was rolling my eyes and saying, "OH no NOT AGAIN!"
I'm not saying I don't think it should be discussed - just that it seems like the 8 or 9 or 10 times I've seen it come up in the past, it's led to vicious arguments about 50% of the time. Hence the little bit of "eye-rolling" and a little feeling of "oh great, here we go AGAIN"
and posting about it on your facebook is the perfect way to make sure this topic stays as low-profile as possible
