Some of you seem to have forgotten about this fairly simple request from Macon:
In Bull Session and Political Bull, we try to let your own consciences determine what is posted and it is our preference to have very limited moderating. We really don't like any censorship in these two forums, but there have been several requests recently to have more moderating done in PB. But there are also those who would like to have no moderating at all and that's understandable, too. Finding the right mix that pleases the greatest number of people isn't easy and in fact, sometimes it almost seems impossible.
Lately, a small number of posters seem to be more interested in discussing other posters than discussing politics. The personal attacks and vulgar insults are getting out of hand and are turning several posters away. If we have to sacrifice the troublemakers to prevent that from happening, that's what we'll do. Consequently, a couple of you have made it onto the short list to join Pig Farmer unless you change your ways.
Let's try to respect Macon's request to keep it more about the politics.
