The following comment recently appeared on a post written by one of our members. The commenter was obviously upset over the nature of the article, feeling it was inappropriate for our network.
"The bigger question is... WHO CARES? Why are you posting #$%^&&% recipes on a real estate blogging platform? Are you THAT bored? Are you THAT unprofessional? Is that what you want your clients to see? Are you just blogging for points? It's THIS type of garbage that is diluting the effectiveness and quality of Active Rain!"

I'm not going to take the time to debate the merits of whether 'recipes' or 'jokes' or whatever else is posted by our members constitutes acceptable content.
Here at ActiveRain, we encourage healthy debate. We welcome opposing views. It's good to regularly question the things that we hold onto so dearly, in light of dissenting opinion. Our convictions are either further cemented in our minds, or they're changed and influenced for the better.
If you are going to present an opposing viewpoint in the Rain, and hope to have any shred of credibility, then don't hide behind a shroud of virtual anonymity.
