Wow. I forget my laptop at work and can't log into AZ for a day and look what I miss!

I didn't see anything that happened yesterday. I just want to chime in and say I am rather disappointed to hear that threads were created saying F the mods. :(

AZ has been feeling kinda hostile lately. Seems like more than just summer doldrums setting in. Easy for me to say I guess since my season is not over yet.

Let's get this back on track... thanks to the Mods and the Admin for their work running behind the scenes on AZ and making tough calls that may not always be popular with certain segments of AZ members.

Thanks for the post Steve...Let me say that your 10k+ posts have helped turn AZ into what it is today. The late Greg ;-) always used to say back in the day it was pretty much you and him talking on the forum :lol:..Looking forward to more of it!

Gawd. If people could just act like adults, and live by the "would I say that to them if I was face to face" and "restraint of pen and tongue" moderation would not be necessary.

"Yeah? Well the Jerk store called - they're running out of YOU!"

really? i thought it was "anything goes" over there

Nope, not anything goes, don't know where that comes from. I do encourage freedom of expression, however, there are still a few rules, one of them being no personal attacks. An that is a tough call as there may be some personal attacks due to disagreements. However, 90% of his posts were nothing but personal attacks...

Thanks for paying attention 2knees.. :razz:

Edit: Actually have to hand it to the little guy. In close to 2 years, first person to be deleted.

I'll give you credit for the decision, it's never as easy or as black / white as it appears. "for the greater good". :wink:
