Default Respect!!!!!!!

Okay folks, this last while on the board there has been quite a few threads that have derailed into name-calling, soapbox standing, mud slinging pieces of crap. It is also evident that this behaviour is filtering into the PM system. We all agree that we as outdoorsmen need to stand together, and this vile behavior isn't doing anything, but giving our detracters fuel for their fire. I can't speak for anyone else, but I am quite honestly sick of seeing it, we are all entitled to our opinions, but if we can't discuss these contentious issues without showing respect for each other, then I think we are worse off then we all think.
Please stop with these vile filled attacks on each other.

Brady and mods, just one question. Can you guys read all member's PMs or are they indeed private?

Axeman, They are indeed private. Of course if someone forwards them to us then we do see what was forwarded.

Default I agree

Agreed 100%! Obviously we all have differing opinions but when we resort to personal attacks and disrespectful comments, it detracts from our point and our reputation. I think we all have to stick together and stand strong to protect that which brings us all to this website.

No disrespect ment, but since I signed-on here back in `08, that ^ kind of stuff had been going on, on a regular basis, since almost day 1.

Actually, I find this forum to be a much better place now since those times ... I'm guessing mostly due to the work you Mods have done.

So I guess my question is; 'Why this thread now, when things where so much worse before?'
