Thanks for clarifying, Gandalf. I'm glad to hear your side of the story; it makes a lot more sense now - Last night was pretty hectic and I completely missed your original Posts! It just still makes me a bit wary to have someone constantly hovering over my head ready to delete any of my Posts, but I guess I've just been spoiled by the lax moderation around here in the past.

Ahhh I take it then that you used the search button at the top and looked at what all the fuss was about? The topics in question and how horribly threatending the Posts were that caused the reactions? Thank you for that.

Of course if anyone wants to do it now its going to be cluttered if you look for any of the various spellings of Gandalf, so using the member number field and putting 4424 works better.

Well, if the only problem is scaring newbie's and upgrade costs...

1: Do what Baen books does. Make a seperate forum for heated discussion. They call their's blazes.

2: I'm a welfare bum living at home with two major psychiatric disorders in Canada. How much money for bandwidth and storage are we talking about? Anyone else want to volenteer?

There, problem solved. see?

Actually they did that the first time. Its called Shrapnel General and has a description of "Stop in for a beer and a conversation or two... ". It was considered that it would be easy for Moderators to move strongly OT threads there for everyone to participate in.

Sounds good. What good SEIV domain names are available? Looks like SEIV.net and SEIV.org are up for grabs.

I have a suggestion, why don't we take a break from this discussion for a few days to let everyone absorb what has been said. Lets lock the thread for 48 hours and then resume discussion. This is just a suggestion to keep everyone from becoming over heated about something that we all value as important.

Guys,

I haven't read this topic yet but the title disturbs me. I am going to lock this for now so I can read it and absorb the info. After I get a chance to wade into this I will probably unlock it.

Please feel free to PM me immediately with any concerns.

Thanks.
