The reason we provide the comments area for such sensitive posts is because we hope to overcome these barriers by holding discussions in a civil and mature manner. It is obvious from the last 5-6 comments on this 6 months old post, that the discussion forum serves no useful purpose but to further the agenda of the commentators. We have no control on what visitors post but we do hold the right from restricting them from using our blog as a pulpit for their agendas. So, as much as I hate doing this, comments will be closed for this post. Anyone who wants to continue discussions on this post can do so by contacting us through our <a href="http://uberdesi.com/blog/tipster/" rel="nofollow">Tipster page</a> and we may choose to include your opinions or not.
