You like both me and Pants?

You're probably the only one on here that does, besides me!

i remember when steve started this site. a lot of us had been posting on espn, but things had taken a definite downhill turn and posting had become next to impossible. a couple of trolls had decided to pretty much pollute that board. a temporary 'home' was started via yahoo, and then derby trail opened for business. i know a lot of us really appreciated the fact that someone would take on such a thankless task so that those of us who wanted to 'talk' horses would have a place to do so. now, some have come and gone..some of us have been here from the start. sometimes things get heated, sometimes things go overboard. i'd imagine that most of us probably have typed and posted in the heat of the moment, and many of us would most likely take back some things said in anger.
at any rate, altho things get a bit ugly in here at times, at the end of the day it's still generally a fun place to visit.
there may be times that feelings get a bit hurt, something rubs the wrong way, but in a crowd this diverse, we're not all going to agree 100%, regardless of the issue.

this is supposed to be a discussion board and opinions on horse racing like many subjects vary. That's where some act like adults and others take criticism well. The poor sport find it the time to open their bowels over others. Unfortunately the playing field seems to be tilted for some. Some get their posts deleted that is found offensive or leaning to a possible cyberbrawl. Others can get away with anything verbally offensive or visually disgusting. So I was curious who are these untouchables that a reply in defense would cause a deletion of our post.

Elegantly written and communicated Bravo Deb....

I wasn't present in the beginning but since 2005-6 DT has been my neighborhood place to come to socialize, discuss, laugh and learn. No subject is taboo, no event considered too private as immediate family have passed and babies born. In learning to measure what I write and to read much more than I say, the place still works for me and I appreciate those here that make me smile, warm my heart, force me to think and question that which I had taken for granted in this world as judgment should be the last thing I should be comfortable with here......so I am not.
