For all our members, please take a quick moment to review the rules and information for our board and individual forums. As of late, several threads have gone WAY off topic, people getting snippy with each other, cursing and a few things that are close to bashing.
Most of the time a gentle nudge from the admin/moderators usually helps, however, several new welcome threads have been completely hijacked and that is unacceptable and unfair to the new members of our board. Our board welcomes every new member and the last one I had to close because people not only got off topic, but began telling each other to shut up. That is absolutely unacceptable. Remember, if warning members cannot correct this, infractions, suspension and eventual banning from the site can occur. However, we do not want to do that.
We are not perfect and even the admin gets off topic sometimes. However, this should not become a regular or accepted policy.
Furthermore, please refrain from multi-posting (posting several times without interaction with another member). This takes away from the appearance of the board and bogs down the thread. The members should not have to filter through pages and pages of posting because one or two members posted 5 things back to back, with only one sentence. If you think of something new, you can always go back and "EDIT" your previous posting.
Every welcome threads asks that new member please read our rules. I'm linking them here, please take a moment to read them or reread them if you have read them already.
There is a lot of information on this site already posted. Please remember, our search feature is really good and our FAQ section answers quite a bit.
Also, just take a moment to look through all the different forums and you'll probably find what you are looking for. If you do not see what you are looking for, please feel free to PM an admin or ask in the briefing room. Do not direct general site information inside a thread with a different topic.
Thanks so much.......
