I have a Letter and I'm confused

Today, I received a letter from Forest River Forum warning me that I have been way too nice, far too helpful and to knock it off. Knock it off? I don’t get it. I have exceeded the forum’s expectations in handing out knowledge and am now in violation. I have owned a Pop-Up, a travel trailer, a fifth wheel, several class A motorhomes and a couple of Class C motorhomes as well. I think I am very knowledgeable about all aspects of the RV life and have a lot to offer. I have always tried to be nice to other people and make sure they walk away with some education and a strong urge to be my new friend. I always read threads from the beginning and take caution not to just comment and duplicate what someone else has previously posted. It has worked out for years. I guess the industry and people are changing. I really do have an abundance of RV knowledge, along with an occasional funny story. I don’t know what to do, but Forest River Forum told me that I had till the end of the day today to respond to their request. I think I might ignore them for the day. Please help me decide what to do!

Hook line and sinker last year, not this year. First couple of sentences and then I went ok, I know what’s happening now. Good one!

Personally, I'm thinking he could start charging for advice. $1 per post. Sarcastic remarks would remain complimentary. [emoji57] [emoji196]

Explain to them that you're not really as nice as they think, and that half (at least) of the time you're not dazzling everyone with brilliance, but confounding them with BS. I'll vouch for you.

P.S.: Don't forget to flip your calendar over to the new month.
