I think to 'fix 'it' is to remain relative to the thread topic at hand.

No, Paul suggested a thread to prevent his thread going off topic, when he commented on the way criticism was being expressed
I see the "fix" referring to how the forum can be a place where criticism is undertaken with care and tact .. ie with thought for how those being criticised might read what is written without feeling annoyed or that their their efforts are belittled or dismissed.
I don't expect every person here to like everything Meat records, every performance. However many of us do, and if I do I'll say I do; it is a fan forum after all. I'll post an opinion which is mine. If I can do that without being dismissed or argued against for having it, and the critical opinion is expressed with some thought for how it will come across to Meat or Paul, (both of whom are passionate about what they do, and are very close to it) both views can be expressed with courtesy and some care for the feelings of others. Bluntness isn't that helpful imo on a forum; tact and care is.
