Especially as the particular poster has in the past referenced twitter feeds of various Porsche associated people. But then I actually use my own common sense to sort news and don't need information spoon fed to me like a primary school student.
As I agree with both of you, this goes for both of you:
As this is a serious forum, the information shared here is of high value, and mostly true info from close sources. However there are also rumors and guesses.
If the news are big stories, then I agree with Deggis, sources are important!, if it's small "nice to know" news, then sources are less important.
The poster of the news is also important, as some have less credibility than others.
Baseline, we are all different people, with different cultures and upbringings. We therefor act differently, and sometimes just have to accept that not all posts are written to our own taste.
And lets just remember, "if you have nothing good to say, don't say anything"
