I noticed that the other board is short a few too. I could say sports guys don't hang here. not board types.
I saw alot of quotes in the papers and tweets on the twitter board - much is changing in the "ether".
Boards are places for people with thick skins - every day someone here is asking someone to leave. Too bad really.
Respect is needed.
It would be nice if dr sport, mckeech, forstie, etc would hang here but alas - they do not.

I think respect or lack of it is why many people don't post or have stopped posting here.
This same discussion is going on at another board that I frequent, an international one for people interested in audio and recording.
Newbies who know nothing trash industry professionals, causing a lot of them to leave and thereby weaken the chances of others to learn from those who are doing it and have done it and have the gold and platinum records to prove it.
It's been suggested there that people should post using their real names so that others can Google who the posters are and what qualifications they have.
It's fine to have a discussion and express different points of view but to simply come here and trash people is not cool.
"Truth is the ultimate defense."
PMC private messaged me this morning to ask for an explanation on just what I am talking about and with the permission of Cleaver I have included his post which relates to mine. I also wanted to take this conversation away from a thread on Paul's passing. Does not seem appropriate.
I was suggesting that it would be nice if there were certain areas on a board like this that people could comment and control the conversation. At the moment anyone can come on and say just about anything. Some people are sensitive to criticism and they may leave or never join a board. Would be nice to have open forums and ones that you get invited to.

And I too have been banned from the "other" board for something or other..... but yet the moderator and owner of that board is a "friend" on Facebook.
