    A Response to the Recent Uproar

    Though I feel I have no need to justify the deletion of several threads, I will explain them to those who care to read it, as I should do. I deleted several threads written by 355 today because they were written out of spite, and meant to take away from the spirit of the board. It happened once before, some of you might recall. But then, we had no other recourse but to complain to him. It fell on deaf ears, and he became more and more nasty.

    I have been called a Nazi. Well, it's unfortunate that someone has to be so selfish and single minded that they can't see beyond themselves, and make such statements about others. I have done NONE of these deletions out of spite. Guidelines were set forth...and ignored. Zelda & I decided that we weren't going to play games with troublemakers. Nor were we going to play games with those who entertain them. The peace of this board is our primary concern. If that means being harsh sometimes, so be it. We simply will not tolerate abuse of any person, or the board in general.

    355, in all honesty, from a person to a person, if you would have played the game that everyone else was playing (heck, even the one Mango plays is acceptable), then you would have had no trouble. You brought this on yourself, and now you have the choice on how to deal with it: Act like you've been acting & get deleted...or prove us wrong by actually writing something that would blow us out of the water. Are you going to take the spiteful coward's way and NEVER get noticed? Or are you going to prove your salt? The choice is yours. Just know that I, along with Zelda, will be there to stop you from destroying this board.

    And that, friends, I do for YOU. This isn't MY board...it's ours.

    "whatever". Eloquent. If you really can't think of anything intelligent to say, why bother posting?
    It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us the freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who gives us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protestor to burn the flag. - Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC
