V-Hawk - Your points are well taken but I don't we shouldn't walk on egg shells hoping someone will like us enough to invite us out with them. That assumes we would even want to fish with them in the first place. Some of us are darned content with the high quality of people we fish with now. Meeting new ones that are friendly and helpful is a bonus.

You are absolutely right that we don't want to turn away the next generation because they ran into some yahoos right off the bat. All I am advocating is some respect for those that have less time to fish because of other obligations. They are part of this community also.
