Hijacking a thread means turning the thing off topic with posts focussed by one's personal agenda, and in this case my post/s was/were on topic and actually pretty fair to you.

I always appreciated your energy and gumption and don't feel I've shot out any insults or statements that are in any way smearing you or your reputation.

I've seen posts that erroneously assume you're experienced and knowdledgeable, which you acknowledge you're not. Because of this perception some people might take erroneous statements or imputations you make with more weight than they deserve.

I made statements that I hoped would give you a certain insight on how you're perceived on this board because of statements you have made out of context or without prior understanding.

I tried to smooth over these impulsive outbursts on your part by posting that explanation of how things aren't quite what you think six months, 12 months, 2 years and so on into the business. But you have to have an open mind to learn, and not come to the whole thing with preconceived notions.

If my opinion doesn't have weight with you because of our past unfortunate association, that's too bad. I'm not the best known or highest respected individual around here, but neither has anyone ever had cause to start a thread about me to call in question any opinion, knowledge or statements I've made.
