Would you rather I stop the train wreck before it happens, or wait until one or more individuals take it too far and get banned?
I've already explained my reasoning to you in PMs Kav.
Either way there will be people who won't be pleased.

The distillation of the Banner of this Forum is "keep the discussion civil", "discuss anything"

If the Moderator locks it for other reasons, it is not proper. If the Moderator decides that he/she decides that the Forum topic should be changed, I suggest he/she should do so., in the Banner.

Kavanagh.

Would you rather I stop the train wreck before it happens, or wait until one or more individuals take it too far and get banned?.

Bitter much?

People who start a fight and want to continue it somewhere else are not welcome to continue it here.

I won't let Crunch do it, I won't let D do it, why should I make an exception for you Helix?

Because you do let D do it. Not bitter at all, just pointing out you shouldn't make rules on the fly. Your job is moderation, not regulation.... As was pointed out to me. (many times) :LOL

I have as much respect for you these days as I have for D, Butch and Farley, you have painted yourself with the same brush of bias, lies, and deceptions. And Mob just hears who whines at him the loudest. Sadly, with John MIA, we are stuck with you. (And the conflict of interest that goes with it.)

This forum is for general discussion, TradeWars or otherwise.

This forum is NOT a smack forum. There will not be a smack talk forum here. Hyperspace (it was EIS but EIS doesnt have a smack forum anymore - Helix) has been overran with trash since theirs opened. It's leaking into every other area and quickly filling their entire site with garbage-level content. Their forums are full of disrespect, personal assaults and nasty personal petty bickering. This makes it really hard for people with a real interest in the game to get anywhere.

Have a problem with someone? Well get over it or take it up in private message, that's why it's there.

There are very few things here that will get your messages removed or that will get you banned. VERY few. But a direct personal assault on another member IS one of those things. Basic respect and civility is expected here.

Lets take a page from Sing...
