Atomic Tiki Punk,
I've spent the last couple hours figuring out whether I'd respond to your post. I have decided to do so. I'll attempt to address your points.
First, I'm afraid that, yes, I seem to be taking your post the wrong way.
While I may not post often, I do read the site, and this sub forum regularly.
I often see the first post of a build topic looking very similar to mine in that the space as it currently exists is shown. So I began mine in the same manner. Some of those first posts show a completely bare room.
As to there being nothing "tiki-bar" about the post, I'll direct your attention to the description of this sub-forum. I believe this qualifies as "other". As far as scale, the room may not be large, but neither are some of the others shown here.
Or perhaps the trouble is with the current beachy theme. While the surf board may not be the most common decoration here, they are far from unused. The same can be said of the mural. And the photos, though those are of Hawaiian flora.

In short, I'm unable to fathom how my post differs from so many others as to be inappropriate. Some of the topics here seem to go no further than "I got a bar and put up a shelf". Some appear to never get off the ground.

It's rather disappointing to attempt to contribute and be told immediately that my efforts are not appropriate to the venue.
