This is not just meant for you, Bob, I address all of the thread.
This was meant to be a designated unmoderated thread for battle in order to keep our "private" thread tidy. I am disappointed that it has had to become a censored thread, and I am convinced Bob finds this chore distasteful. Who wouldn't? I have received a pm from an arguably RW poster asking if I want him to tone it down or even leave the thread. I say no. We have our clubhouses. We are not looking for homogeniety here. While certain individuals do seem incapable of discussion that either side might deem worthy, the remedy here should be to employ the IGNORE feature. Use it on me if you like. What does not seem acceptable are personal attacks on those private threads, where they cannot be addressed. If it must be said, let's say it here and duke it out here. Better yet, if it's empty invective, let's just not say it. Let's not go running to Admin, I'm speaking to both sides here, when we are done dishing it out and just can't take it anymore. But no one should be run off. Shunning seems okay, by me.

I am thinking of revamping the header. So we might as well open rules to discussion. Any thoughts here?
