Not pointing the finger at a single person - agreed it is "from both sides"

If anyone's credibility is being called into question so be it, and as a relatively new member here I do place some weight for example on post count. If someone has 4k posts they've been here a while and so their posts carry perhaps slightly more weight than newer posters, all things being equal.

Of course, sometimes you look at the quality of posts (and again I'm not calling out any single party here), and the weight is reduced somewhat.

I applaud (genuinely) those whose motives include assisting those less knowledgeable by trying to ensure balance, but my free advice to anyone doing so, would be to also consider their general tone and language as that might be counterproductive to said goal.
