    I also talked to Justin this morning about this. It will not be tolorated in the future, we are cracking down and taking names. You will get a warning and if it continues you will be banned. Consider this your warning if you are one those abusing the rules.

    Like Dan said, keep reporting the offending posts and we will get to them. Right now I'm pretty busy with work and trying to fit in a few hunts here and there, so I may not see it right away. But I will respond on your reports.

    Sorry, I just couldn't resist.....Sadly, it's pretty "spot-on" for some of what can be found on a pretty regular basis as well.

    I didn't really notice. Then again I've only been on this site since april-ish. Either way even with any alleged flame wars this site is awesome.

    i feel like there are some very arrogant people that think they know all and when someone asks for help these people have a sarcastic remark to answer there question and i have experienced this with both seasonal and the veterans of this site

    i must have missed something because it is rather tame around here compared to some forums i have posted on in the past. at least no one is slamming someone for reposting a question that has been asked many times over and over again, or demanding them to search. but i agree it is rather silly to call someone names because you disagree with their opinion or they disagreed with yours.

    I agree I've noticed this too from august through right now the site really heated up I respect everybody's opinions were not all the same and we have different ethical and moral views then one another that's life and that's a fact

    I havn't been here that long but I have seen some different arguments and alot of them IMO are really good. It is great to hear other peoples points of view and try to understand where there comming from. I've even had my mind changed after alot of thought on certain topics. On the other hand some things we can clearly do without. All in all though I have learned alot here very quickly and am very happy I joined this site. I've never belonged to a forum before this one and don't really know how they go but if a 15 year old was threatening me I'd for sure get off that website and have my name changed:)

    Ironic? So you are saying it is the exact opposite of what I described?

    I guess that would make it nonseasonal members are acting like the sober people at the party. I guess I don't see the irony.
