Because if we did, I’d lock this thread so fast it would make your head spin. There is NOTHING useful happening here (except for the part where we say what a great guy Dave is, which in the long term is bad for Dave’s ability to get through doorways) any more.

Agree to disagree and move on. Talk about something else. That’s just a request at this point. It’s not yet a formal request from the Admins but why wait?


Funny that the only people I’ve met that want to put on their brown shirts and jack boots and squash free speech and disscussion of the company’s health seem to be on the company can do no wrong path.-Ken

You’ve crossed the line again, Ken. You need to remember that LUGNET is a privately-owned resource and not a pulpit for you to denigrate and demean people you disagree with. Larry, as a LUGNET staff member, has the right and responsibility to tell you to tone it down when you go too far.

So I’ll ask you once: stop the personal slights and snide riffs. They do you and this community no good.

Kelly

First off I’ve said nothing about anyone personal. For some reason my asking a simple question hits home personaly with some. Not my fault though.

Second I only stated a fact as I’ve experienced it. There are those on the company can do no wrong band wagon that absolutly want to squash free speach when it comes to this debate. There was a lot of fecal mater posted here in the name of “pre-US-election debate”. Then there was all the sexuality dump that in my opinion had no place on these boards. I steered clear of these and other equaly absurd disscusions. Like wise no one need get involved here.

Brown shirts doesn’t go to far. There’s a lot on these boards that should be shut down so that children can be safetly welcomed here. It passes though. If one feels there is nothing useful here they can move on. However you certaily can’t say the discussion is not relevant or warranted.-Ken
