I'm not averse to having BOTH. And with all due respect, I'm the guy paying the freight around here and the individual who'll decide the tone and agenda. Bickering will occur, and I accept it as part of the "scene", AS LONG AS IT DOES NOT DISSOLVE INTO THREATS, NAME-CALLING AND BELLICOSE, BELLIGERANT INSULTS.
EVERYONE that is a member here, and by proxy those that are lurking, will be treated with respect and empathy by each other
REGARDLESS OF THEIR LEVEL OF INTEREST AND COMPREHENSION of the game...
No one, and I mean
NO ONE, is above reproach and redress in this regard... This site and Forum bear my name and therefore is an extension of my involvement in ATRAB and the other industry-related endeavors in which I'm involved. As such, it's my responsibility to ensure that the environment is one of generous welcome and gracious appreciation for those that post or just read...
As far as I'm concerned, what goes on here 24 hours a day is akin to a dinner party in my own home, as "BTW" once suggested. As such, I will not have any one guest insulting or taunting another... Period. If anyone cannot show appropriate self control and the manners of polite company that go with it, they'll simply be asked to leave.
From what I saw yesterday, there was indeed a terrific give and take all over the place on the racing and non-racing subjects alike. I intend to see it continue without rancor...
