[QUOTE]Originally posted by bdgee: [QB] Yaw'll need to get off Pagan's azz. And yaw'll need to offer a bit of concern for decorum with him. He's correct, Bob has the right to remove any one of us or anything anyone of us post and the right to restrict how we act or interact here. I don't agree with the extreme remedy Pagan proposed, in that it imposes responsibilities on how Bob and the moderators use their rights that should not be necessary with a group of adults. But I do with his plea for civility here and you should too. And Bob has the right to expect those who post here to act at least adult enough that he needn't play the kindergarten playground monitor and send folks off the playground when they pull hair and throw rocks. He has better things to do. Too damned many of you spent too damned much time playing Space Invaders and wiping out and zapping whatever you saw on a screen. You still are playing a childish game whenever you get the chance and you forget that these are not simply electronic images of a machine generated enemy. Just because you find it on "the net" so that it shows up on the screen of your machine where you play Space Invaders doesn't make it reasonable to attack it unmercifully like you do the Invader rocket ships in order to score another kill and get a bigger score in the game. It's a forum, NOT AN ELECTRONIC GAME. The people and their post you attack here are not electronic imaginary targets, designed specifically for you to destroy in a silly game and get more points! They may not wish to be nothing but a toy in your egocentric game. And they have a right to expect that you show some amount of respect for normal social decorum, including not incessantly insulting everyone with name calling of whoever you want to demean today. You wouldn't want to be part of any group that went about in public calling folks names and intentionally insulting minorities and screaming insults. Why do it here? Have you no respect for others simply because you can't see and feel and hear them? Are you really so insensitive that you think referring to others in derogatory terms and demeaning names is acceptable, whatever they are are aren't and whether or not they are or are not present? Pagan has asked that we consider cleaning up the way we treat people here. Doesn't sound like a bad idea to me and, even if it did, because it is a concern to him, it should be respectfully considered by all of us. [/QB][/QUOTE]
