In theory, the concept of "time-out" or reprimand for inappropriate behavior sounds good. The subjective nature how this will take place makes it an imperfect idea.

I voted No...I miss Snowman..I like how the internet is a giant free-for-all!!!
Wah. freeheelwilly was banned but Pat gets a pass. Time to get the eff over it Skippy. Really.I hope 2knees responds to this thread with his thoughts. He likes flame wars and all around busting chops as much as anyone who has ever posted here, yet he is also in the inner circle of the Sundown crew who are the movers and shakers of this forum.
What say you Pat?
It's been way, way worse then this. How about the time when Greg got into a multi day flame war with that dude who is a racer from PA. That spread from here to the PA forum and into Kzone too I think. That was nasty.

That things have been alot worse here without resorting to putting adults in a forum time out.WTF are you talking about?

That’s not it at all. He’s said many times that flame wars where a guilty pleasure for him and I wanted to know what he thought about all this. I respect his opinion and that’s it.
Skippy? I guess that’s your way of being dismissive.
If everyone here could act like an adult, we wouldn't be discussing this.

You can call bullshit all you want it doesn't make it so.I've never once had a complaint about Pat's antics, which most of the time are done in obvious jest and against people he knows personally. I can't say the same about some others. BTW, I call bullshit. That's exactly it.
Yep, Skippy. Kinda like the way FHW used to call me Greggy. Feels special, don't it?
Put yourself in time out.
Please. You got the exact reaction out of me you were hoping for.
I was looking for Pat’s opinion. You took it the wrong way and then went off on me. What should I do then curl up in a ball?
I’m not looking for anything from you.

Yup, its definitely June on a skiing forum!
I think if a Mod PM's someone and tells them to cool it and they don't listen, they probably deserve at least a time out. I can't believe it would even have to go beyond a Mod PM'ing to say a line was crossed and to drop the subject.
Well, we've been getting complaints.

That's just one example and there has been plenty of others.
So what am I missing? How about somebody spells it out for me?
I do not. I don't mind a mild mannered flame war. What I don't care for are blatant assholes like that guy.
