A Revelation

**arcon** · 08-27-2001 08:20 AM

Greetings to all. I know the identity of one of our nasty dragons. I will not make it public knowledge but do intend on dealing with this person personally.
Im working on the second one and ill continue to do so until i know his/her identity also.
Hopefully the New moderator system we have now, will continue to keep our site(fantasyland) a respectable place to post our writings.
Go on with your writing, let the system work out the problems. We will receive protest from time to time from people who dislike our site and what we do. I would suggest to those who respond to consider it a debate and try and keep it civil. I do not think the protest will stop.
All of these protest in my opinion should not be deleted. We can however chose not to respond to them. If they cross over the line into the arena of obscenity and become personal attacks they will not be tolerated.

Live Long and Fence.

Intriguing...

I want to know more, but certain you've said all you're going to.

Well done.

Personally, they all crossed the line ages ago.

Steve.

What these people need to realize is that there ARE ways to get your point across without acting like a mindless buffoon. In a good debate, the person attacks the ideas, not the person presenting the ideas. While complaining is everyone's right, it is NO ONE'S right to make it a personal issue. When it becomes personal, it needs to leave the message board & go somewhere else. Lying personally about someone should not be tolerated. Neither should personal attacks.

very intelligent and well-chosen words, moon.

I'm not taking the wotsit, but have you ever considrered writing an advice column in a newspaper? I'm sure little gems like that would make pretty good additions! I mean... You aren't exactly unqualified for the job with your writing background. Then again, I would guess that writing books and writing newspaper work are two completely different disciplines?

Most Definatly agreed Moon! I love a good Debate. You know no yelling or name calling or uncalled for rudeness! I'm actually taking Debate this year in school.

Wanna B, you will probab;y get your chance to practice for class right here.

So true so true.
Teacher: wow you're debating is really good. Where'd you learn it?
Me: Oh, on a web site.
Teacher: *very confused look.*
Don't ask it's early and I just woke up.
