Got into the "Members" thread to post and in the time it took me to finish (it was a good one, too) the thread was in the HOS, and brett gets a timeout...
More later,
Tour...

    Well it's like a slap in the face, and from a member that's been around a while.

    Justin,

    I was more remarking on the "coincidence" of a thread being whisked away mid-post... (and the Sunday timing... :D )

    I've little problem with your actions as long as "punishment" is laddled out evenhandedly. And with brett the first to fall, it appears it will be. What little problem I have is that it will be the long-term members contributors that will end up taking the hits.

    It's rare that a newbie starts dropping the "F" bomb from the start, but anyone that stays around lone enough is going to have someone or something set them off sooner or later.
    More later,

    brett had the winky eye going and I disagree with your interpretation JB.

    Demi has been initiated into the fold and I believe that was the intent.

    Henry, I think Justin put Brett in time out because he swore, not because of the comment to Demi.

    I read cuss words in previous responses so in effect JB did not do a thorough reading.

    Henry

    its the 4th so just in this month do a querry on ****,****, piss, beatch and so forth. Give us a rollup on how foul we are. My list is just a subset.

    Henry should be trashed but is having babies instead. GGGGGOOOOOOOOD Lord HBomb3 is almost HERE!:D

    Just reread the thread and I don't see 'em, Henry, at least none that count anymore. I mean at least three of George Carlin's 7 words are on the airwaves daily nowadays.

    Apparently it's only Ffffff...., Fffff..., Fffff... well THAT word, that will get you bounced. Only one we know of so far anyway...

    all I want is a roll up of cuss words from JB. Who says there ok or not is not my point. Carlin has done a great job with definitions:D

    Foul language is also not acceptable on this public forum, and should be limited to private email communications.

    I dont' consider bold large font that says "Shut the *bleep* up" respecting these rules.

    Move on, please.

    No one is twisting your arm making you respond to a thread. There's an ignore list for a reason -- so you can IGNORE people. Don't you think the extra attention will make someone want to post more?

    Justin, I DID put the party in question on my ignore list...and in fact was one of the first to do so. I have not responded to any of his posts and do not intend to. My point was that his actions deserved a time out just as much as Brett...IMO...and this is more an indictment of the other party than defending Brett.

    I am incorrect here...I did reply (ONCE!) when I stated publicly that I was putting him on my ignore list!

    I wish that were true, but unfortunately I don't see what in the forum rules would justify that, do you ? Flame bait discussions about politics, religion and the like are unfortunately not so far off topic that they're off board.

    either one of the following could be a reason...
    4. HONOR THY FORUM BRETHREN. Treat everyone with respect. Disagree with your neighbor, but do it some respect. Not having fun? Log off. Get along, or you'll turned into a pillar of old audio equipment.
    3. THOU SHALT NOT FLAME. If you're here to flame and make trouble, make fun of people and constantly be disagreeable, you're in the wrong place. Go here.

    Good idea but there are enough folks that don't follow the written rules ... the unwritten ones don't have a prayer.
