There seems to be a decline in civility here. It seems that some of the
incivility is coming from people posting to innapropriate groups. What

On the one hand, do we need to jump down peoples throats the moment they
cross the line? On the other hand, can't people understand that the
strength of Lugnet is that discussion is very well broken down into

they were in the right place. I just want to see us try and keep to the
group charters so that when my time is less free, I can concentrate on
the topics I am most interested in.

I don't know, maybe this whole post is just more fuel on the fire, but
something seems to be going wrong here.
