I said I would ban this forum from my computer, but, I didn’t. I’ve had a lot of fun and interesting debates here and I’ve checked in on occasion to see what was being said. I was banned for using profanity according to Pat. The words I used were mostly damn, hell, schit, bastard and asshole. Since I’ve been gone, I’ve seen every one of those words, and that’s all they are is words, used in various threads. They might not have been said explicitly, but what’s the difference between saying POS and saying the actual words? We all know what POS means. We also know what schit means. Does anybody think a-hole isn’t the same thing as asshole? Pat used that very word in this thread. Nobody else that I’m aware of has been banned for using those words. The real reason I haven’t returned is not that, though. It’s the constant negativism of the right wingers and the tolerance of their disruptive behavior that has driven me to a more tolerant and educational site. I’m perplexed that the two who cause all the trouble are allowed to remain here, while Brewster and I and several others have decided to leave. The forum doesn’t appear any less confrontational since those departures and the same disrupters are still at it. As long as that condition remains, I think this forum is doomed.

What do you have to say about that Pat ?

For the record Neal, I didn't agree with the bans. I was left holding the bag and blame. I nearly dropped out myself over some actions taken. Someone i know needs to either engage or leave us alone. I miss your input and views. This topic however explains alot why we have the childish garbage going on.

I try to treat others with respect. I have made several real time great friends from the forums. You never know who you may meet face to face someday, so why run the risk of antagonizing other members.

"Slutty" works OK. I just don't understand it. Why look for a fight when it is more relaxing to share ideas and thoughts and maybe learn something. It is crazy.

Shall we compile your posts Thumper and then ask why you do it?

If things keep going the way they are this forum is dead. There are a couple of posters that do nothing but stir up nonsense and than claim it's someone else's fault. Some of the more intelligent posters have already left and more will follow.
