I must say, I don't like the fact that threads are just "removed" because of a little lively discussion. If it becomes offensive or obscene, that's one thing. I know this isn't exactly a "public" forum, but come on, where's the first amendment right to free speech? If I want to call Kasept a "poopy head," or Oracle a "doofus", is that going to to get removed too??

Then you shouldn't post here if you don't agree with decisions by your host. You certainly have that right.

And you did.

And I responded.

And you weren't satisfied....so you had another comment.

I can only repeat my initial sentiments...so far.

OK, let me make it clearer for you.

This BS of griping in chat rooms because someone doesn't like the host's decisions is as boorish as it is prevalent. You are a guest of Steve's here. He makes the rules and the decisions. Since you have graciously been allowed into his house, so to speak, while you are entitled to your opinions, it would certainly be nice, as a guest, if you kept them to horse racing ( at least in the racing rooms ). Otherwise, believe it or not, you appear ungrateful.

OK. I agree with that. I guess I've been used to the freedom of a fully "public board." I do prefer to keep the discussions about horse racing as well.. I admit I didn't actually get to read what led to the removal of the other thread.. I can only assume it was justified. That's the end of the "non-horse" discussion from my end.

LOL.. I was wondering if anyone would comment on that. I thought it was kind of funny... poopy head.. I think I heard a 3 year old use that the other day! (no, not a horse)

[ateamstupid]

You could get killed in my hood for callin' someone a PH..

You guys are ruining the best horse racing site on the internet. Where Reginal Denny when you need him..."can't we all just get along?"... Just as we have difffernces in every race we have a right to have them in the forum. It's a collective pool but these cheap shots. Common! You opinion is about racing not a fellow poster.

Go meet out back of the bar and fight it out. We'll find out who lives and who gets cut up.
