Not in a method of defense, I must just say that your original post did come off as something of an unsupported, unconstructive criticism. Instead of asking why we had chosen the route we had chosen, you seemed to be saying that we were wrong, but without offering any evidence. That, plus the rather overpowering title may have got the whole debate off on the wrong foot.
Wigferth and others are historians, and they take it very seriously - that's why we have them - and your post seemed more in keeping with the vehemence of Fallen851 or Darkarbiter, and their put down may have been to harsh to compensate for this. I'm sorry that none of our other EB members (I include myself for that more than anyone in this mistake) had the thought of calming this situation down, asking everyone to restate their position, and continue from there in a far more relaxed way.
I cannot, and do not speak for the whole team, but I am sorry that things got this far, and you had to be subject to some rather scathing responses. I hope you are able to put this behind you, accept the apology, and keep posting as you obviously have a keen interest in this timeperiod (as do we) and are the kind of fan that we truly wish to cater for.
