I agree. Those who love Hot peppers have mild cool temper. lol

There have been occasions when the trolls descend to cause discord around here, as they always try to do wherever they go, but they soon find their desired effect is minimal and ignored quickly. It's hard to create division with pepper growers. After all, we know how to deal with parasites of all kinds.

Of course we're all calm- we get to play in dirt and water without any reservation- nothing can ruin that good time!

Well said, Jason. I agree. The e-cig forum for vapers is very similar.

Yes, pepper folk are a rare breed....

Take a look at the Hot Topics Forum here at GardenWeb if you want to see rude, argumentative people! :-)

Just open with Global Warming or Guns....

Agreed! Since joining in April I've learned so, so, so much, and I have been humbled, which is a good thing.

I believe it's the overwhelming generosity of the people on here, and the lack of negativity (I.E. money, power, greed) that makes this forum what it is, one of the best!

I agree, dirt, water, fertilizers, and great people to chat with and share information with is awesome, who could get mad about that. Not to mention seed trading, seed give aways, and event held seed swaps. I am just waiting for the hot pepper harvest convention held somewhere in a warm zone where we can meet everyone, trade seeds, sauces, and powders. Or sell whatever, killer BBQ's Oh sorry day dreaming back on topic y'all are awesome!

Hey McTiggs- a very good friend of mine from Winnipeg just arrived in Manitoba for a visit. Both he and my hubby like hot stuff. They are my guinea pigs for hot pepper creations. They both roll their eyes when I tell them I'm on a pepper forum but with all of the help here, I'm going to be able to change those roll eyes to bug eyes!! I'll save some of the nasty stuff for his return :)

No way! Small world. I guarantee it'll blow his mind - the selection at supermarkets and farmer's markets here is quite vanilla, usually Jalapenos and Serranos are all you can find - sometimes green thai chiles, and (if you're extremely lucky) orange habaneros.

A 7-Pot would blow his face off!

seriously you'd be amazed how much I have to delete on the judo forum every week. people get so tied up over things that don't really even affect them, and lash out at everyone within reading range. you guys seem to readily accept other schools of thought, and wish people the best of luck when they break from accepted practices. that wouldn't happen over there. and it didn't really stick out to me until I got here, and saw that not all forums are the same.

and if I didn't already like this forum enough, a package from Tim (peppernovice) just arrived with a large number of seed varieties, and lots of seeds of each. and I didn't even send him a SASE. Tim is now officially my new hero, but the rest of you guys are still pretty awesome.

thanks again!

All those Capsaicin endorphins keep us mellow!

The difference here is we are all trying to do the same thing, not beat one another !!

I purge most of my animosity in various Facebook chile groups...seems I'm forever telling folks to stop calling/trading/selling their Nagas as Bhut Jolokia! :-D

You nailed it right on the head, noinwi.
It must be the "Capsaicin endorphins " effect.
