    I vote no because I honestly think this forum should be completely uncensored and unmoderated.

    Really? That would degrade into chaos and name calling, and cursing.

    I know this is a tough place to be on this board, but it is miles better than other boards I am on where people simply curse each other out.

    And Clutch, if you feel this is in any way out of place, please feel free to lock it up, in all honesty this was an attempt to let rocketsanalyist see that he was not just ticking off conservatives, but pretty much everyone.

    Just seems to me to be in bad taste to have a thread about any one specific poster.

    LOL - wasn't there a New Yorker thread back in the day?

    If you ask someone nicely several times, and others do the same, what else can you do?

    It is a slippery slope, you might not do it, that is your perogative....but I would.

    Different strokes I guess.

    I'm not sure if you respect me, but I am an Obama supporter and an even bigger Wing Commander supporter :D and I also think it'd probably be for the best if you maybe toned it down a little...

    I respect everyone, believe it or not.......and I will tone it down because I have been asked.

    I only duel those I know I can win, he might actually be able to out post me......and I have already played the victim card in the D&D once....it ended badly for me as I suspect it will for RA too, who by the way reads like BBallScientist to me.

    I'm kind of the opinion that its damn near impossible to moderate a debate forum.

    If people start dropping F bombs and do nothing but personally attack one another (like that doesn't happen already), then they'll start losing credibility and eventually get ignored.

    Call it the "internet libertarian" in me.

    I could see that....my only point is to lesson the load on Clutch....there is no need that he should be drawn into these frays......because people can not act civil.

    And IMHO, personal attacks are out of order.....

    This may be viewed as weak by some, but I was honestly trying to help the guy.

    My attempt failed, Mods...please lock it up.

    actually there's been more than one. but the first one many many years ago - 6 year ago i guess? that one got locked up.

    it's not our jobs to do anything, it's the mods. we have no authority here.
