Subject: Postings and Manners
I decided when I saw the way one thread was going recently to simply delete the messages from the thread without reading them. Several threads recently have turned rather nasty as people ridicule other points of view. I think there is no place for that on the list, and if you have a comment about someone's idea-please refrain from flames or attacks on their logic. All this serves to do is tick off people and turn the tone of the list from something wonderful and constructive to something annoying and Banal. One reason I stopped my SGII thread was that everyone slammed it as being GW-ish. No one needs that kind of ridicule....
