I salute Well'ard for all he has done in getting this forum running and for his time and effort making this forum a success, but I feel it would be in the best interest of this forum to have a new Administrator.
It is fine to have opinions, but when ones verbiage is harsh and inciteful the line is crossed. Yes, we should all behave like adults, and an occasional poke is good, as long as it is meant to be in good fun between friends. The problem may not be a personal one, but one of different cultures, and interpretations of what is written.
Our club and this forum needs an Administrator, who can judge impartially, and place the good of our club and forum above his or her ego, agenda and personal feelings for other members of the forum.
If the decision was mine, I would have suspended both parties
Quote:Also to set the record straight it was I who gave Steve M a 7 day ban on posting because I felt the flaming was getting out of control. Expressing opinions is part of what the forum is for and an occasional poke in good fun is fine also but I will not tolerate flaming on this forum. Behave like adults and every one will enjoy the benefits of this forum.
