Interesting interpretation, to be sure. By commenting on the preponderance of threads asking about potentially troublesome tank stocking ideas...am I really encouraging bad decision making? I think that's a bit of a stretch, but...as you say, to each his own.
When ten people attempt a particular combination of fish species, and nine of them end in disaster...does the fact that one of them seemed to succeed prove that it's a good idea? Or does it illustrate the fact that the odds are stacked against success? Either way, is pointing this out such a sin?
I couldn't possibly have known that you intend to listen to critical comments, simply because so many others don't do that. They start threads asking questions to which they want to hear specific predetermined answers. If/when those answers are not forthcoming, butts become inflamed. Expecting me or anyone else to magically "know" that this case will be different isn't realistic. We have to go by past experience with similar threads.
You've made it apparent that you do indeed intend this thread to be different. Maybe it will...I hope it will...but I guess we'll see. Good luck to you and your fish!
