Deal with the abusive posts

When members make outright attacks on other members, something should be done. And by "something" I don't mean "ignore it".

Being a MOD or Admin is a R-E-S-P-O-N-S-I-B-I-L-I-T-Y and should be held as a position of honor. Allownig verbal (written) abuse of members is not honorable, nor is it responsible.

So many people talk about "freedom of speech" here, but what about maturity? Or respect?

Hey Rocky,

For sure we keep an eye on that. We don't want big fights here either. But if there is an disagreement between two members and they solve it themselves we rather choose for the last instead of other solutions.
Sometimes people say foolish things only to provocate or to stir up things. Ignoring is the best then. If someone is talking to me like that he won't even get a reply. And if he managed to stir up things we always have the trash can.

But after all, despite some incidents, I think this place turned out as being a very friendly place and there is a lot of respect between the members here imo. We don't want to act very strict here, we count on the maturity of the majority of the people to let this place happen, this is also a way of showing respect towards the members here. Without the members here this place is nothing. But if things really get out of control we will act, don't worry!
