I think I like this place. After all, there aren't that many PM forums around where folks are actually respectful and have civil discourse over what we all know to be a very contentious topic: PM's.
That said, I believe PMBug has the right idea.
When the plant starts to grow, if properly moderated, it can grow to be one of the most respected boards out there. It just takes a little time, patience, love and attention. I have both lurked and posted. I try to read everything [for now anyway] to get the full flavor of the boards and her members. So far, I feel right at home.
Although this site, in it's nascent form, is well constructed and well behaved, we should be aware of what has happened at other sites, and not permit the same mistakes to be made [SSF anyone?].
I for one, will PM the 'Bug if I see someone getting stupid, or launching nonsensical personal attacks, and I hope others will as well. While I am not interested in participating in a "police state" website, I don't want to see the same things happen here that most of us witnessed on SilverSeek.
I fully believe in lively discussion and hard core jousting, so long as it does not become personal. I am not offended by F-bombs or any other colorful adjectives, as I am prone to using them as descriptives myself.
Anyway, that's all I have to rant about for now.
Wait, one more thing. The "Boss" made a killer chicken/ham/cheese spiced meat roll last night, I put it down with four bottles of Asahi and.......it rocked.
OK, now I'm done.
