I might point out that the first person to bring Springsteen up in the most recent thread was Paul Crook. As far as respectful, I don't think I've seen anyone being disrespectful. It seems to me that even my little back-and-forth with nikox1 has been good-natured; if he feels otherwise, then I apologize.

Again, where are people saying that?

Mods? What mods?
OK, we have
one, and even that was a recent development. And it takes a LOT before threads are shut down, and it's NEVER about people discussing their opinions about other artists. In fact, the "other artists" section of the site is the only place where people
don't fight. Please, do check out the Springsteen fanboards. You might be shocked by what is "tolerated" over there.

Again, who is putting anyone down here? I have not heard any complaints from the mods, although, I suspect now I will.

Where have I "attacked" anything or anyone? Frankly, "disliking" a post is meaningless to me. I simply don't read what I'm not interested in.
