[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1944748, member: 41816"] ...and, [B][I]yet[/I][/B] [B][I]again[/I][/B], we are back with a situation where a thread is being taken off track by entrenched argument. So, yet again, as a moderator, I am going to say that while the discussion (of protein and its impact on blood glucose) is worthy of discussion, this thread was started to discuss halting weight loss - for which appropriate protein adjustment is just one tool. [USER=496333]@Jim Lahey[/USER] If you have strongly held beliefs about protein (or anything else) please start a new thread for it. Repeatedly hijacking threads like this is against the forum rules (link in my signature). So are pages of disagreeing posts that simply repeat the same views. In particular, rule A6: [B][I]This is a Forum of many different personalities – if you disagree with someone then start a constructive debate or use the Private Message (PM) system to have a conversation. It is unhelpful to have to read miles of disagreeing posts, and can deflect from the purpose of the thread (i.e. thread derailing). [/I][/B] There is nothing wrong with holding an opinion and expressing it, but when it degenerates into nitpicking, bickering and repetitive arguments, then there will be moderation. [/QUOTE]
