Not so much campaigning anything that suggests that the thread is better off with/without, rather that the thread and indeed forum is not worse off with harmless commentary which is a legitimate use of the thread as well as other technical analysis. If you read back through the upteen pages of this thread you will find that there is absolutely no single whole point to it at all.
As for adding comments with no real value, the list of such comments would surely far outnumber those which ended up nailing it. I personally enjoy a great deal of those comments.
