I'm disquieted by the actions of people who are interjecting personal attacks, amongst other strife, in threads these days. Airing your dirty laundry in public isn't something anyone wants to see. The Forums are not your personal Jerry Springer, stop behaving as if it is.

If it's something that has the appearance of bi-monthly flagellated equine carrion and you've said everything you wish to say in other topics of same discussion; quote what you said before. Forgoing that, you can choose to not respond if you are unable to add anything relevant or constructive to the primary topic. If someone shows the inability of being unable to do this repeatedly then I believe they should have their posting rights revoked in a less than temporary basis in specific forum categories.

I've noticed several topics which have had relevant talking points and active discussions in them getting locked due to bad behavior in the past 2 months and it seems to be getting worse.

Punishing those who are behaving because of those who aren't only fuels more interpersonal ire in the community. By locking relevant threads when we posters who have done nothing wrong, and have not the power to rectify the behavior in those causing the locks leads only to strife and frustration.

The community as a whole is what we make of it. I would appreciate it if people would try to keep it tidy, civil, and take topic irrelevant interpersonal communication to PM's and leave the rest of us out of it.

Please, follow the requests of the Staff, follow the rules outlined clearly in the forums, and restrain your behavior so it aligns itself to the ToS you agreed to before you choose to post.

You couldn't have posted this redundant message in the identically nanmed topic not even half a page down?
