Heartland

i dont want to have to start deleting stuff that will start a heated debate... thats ridiculous. but i will not put up with crap designed to start fights. be it posted from the standpoint of an aggressor or of a victim.

there is no xxxxxphobics on here. we have always managed thus far to have intelligent debates. and i like it because people generally leave their disagreements at the door, that is we may disagree on one thread about a given subject, but we are all mature enough to not take it personally and still be pleasant on the next thread.

any comments perceived as negative seem to have come about as a result of posts that are deliberately antagonistic.

and i'm f**king sick of this, so no more.

madam butterfly does not run this place, regardless of what delusional nonsense she may post. i do. and she does not have the power to "zap". i do.

from now on if i see something posted that looks designed to start "something" negative then i will trash it. without explanation, for this is my forum and i dont need to explain my actions to anyone.

if i find myself having to trash a lot of posts by any particular user, they will get a warning. if they continue, they will be banned.

you are warned. all of you.

and i've instructed the moderators to do the same.
