    I hate to do this, but unfortunately I have to.

    Lately there have been more personal attacks between members and more heated discussions. Because there is an obvious animosity between some of the members here, I feel it is necessary to remind everyone of the basic rules of this forum.

    No Personal Attacks

    It is a very simple rule. Sometimes people are going to say something that pisses you off. Sometimes another member will just generally piss you off. When this happens, it is your responsibility to be mature and to not react. You may NEVER respond to someone with an attack on their personality or a trait of the person. Leave all comments to the subject of the post.

    When in Doubt

    We have got more moderators on this forum that we really need - use them. If you feel as if you are being personally attacked by someone, don't respond to them, contact a moderator. Trust me, they need a little work. [​IMG]




    I trust that this message will be sufficient to remind people of what makes this the best forum to discuss football on the Internet. Any new member should feel as if they can come in and join the discussion without getting beaten down personally. Lately, the tone of these forums has been a lot more aggressive.

    If you have any questions, feel free to contact me personally or to reply to this message.

    A good rule of thumb: If you don't have something nice to say, don't say anything at all. [​IMG]

    Without the Eagles group and BearsFan going at it, it may get a little quiet in here, Pack.

    I resemble that remark. I do not attack anyone on the forums personally. I may challenge thier opinion and motives, but i would never say anything derogatory.

    Sage advice. [​IMG]

    If someone does make you mad; count to 10 (3 for Philly fans :cheesey: ) and then move on.
