Hey Scud

[Chuck10mtn]

Hey Von Earlman good point and well taken, most people in any one state really could care less.

I'm saying this in the most respectful, nonconfrontational manner that I can so please bear with me.
Scud, Are we going to be better off as a forum by forcing people to post only certain ways, saying only certain things. Posting as not to create a nonconfrontational manner could be almost impossible. no argumentative posting of any kind, that pretty much takes any opinion not in agreement with said post out of the forum. If you asked the banned people if in the beginning it was anymore than just a debate they would say no. Your 1st two Mandatory statements seen to be very vague in terms,Giving you sole opinion as to whats respectful, sarcastic, aggressive or argumentative posting. Shouldn't there be a couple of people who would take the post under advisment and look it over 1st. Some people are very good at saying things and others aren't so those who aren't very articulate at speech need to worry that a disagreeable post will be met with minimum 30 day suspension. Trying to force people into a way of posting is in my opinion not the best thing for the forums. It seems that if a disagreement with you happens you can just ban and use any of the above rules for justification. But, sarcastic,aggressive, argumentative, nonconfrontational all fall into the open to interpertation catagory.

That being said do I think people need to think longer and post less sure, do people after some posts in a topic start to push the line sure.
Do some people push buttoms more than others, again sure they do. I just don't want to see peopleof differing opinions get silanced .
