Looks like we have been in multiple shouting matchs a bit lately.
Please, folks, don't post huge copy/paste articles from other sites (especially when they are copyrighted articles), just link them. And maybe only do that if there is some possible vague relevance? And if it starts to turn into a shouting match, then it probably shouldn't have been here in the first place. Only topics started or joined by ***** were usually both E-R related and apparently worthy of heated emotion. Let's let him retain the honor of being the only person ever blocked from here!
I have no interest in blocking anything (although some occasional posts do make me question my commitment to free speech...), but at the same time, it was never my intent to host a political free-for-all.
There are the occasional new visitors/members who come to chat and/or learn something about E-R -- imagine that; I suspect at this point more of these newbies don't bother coming back than bookmark the forum.
