Found this out there. Pretty on target in relation to some of the banned n00bs we've had recently.

What's with the Lego men and legs swinging around and the one wearing a brown diaper.

Very relevant....hmmmm....so when "Hitler or Nazis" get mentioned on a thread you should realize that thread has come to an end--totally I agree!

Also,
I better slow the quantity of my posts according to this--I guess quality and quantity don't go hand in hand--not a pretty picture!

...so much better than the pre-Oscar show!!! Good to be reminded how unworthy I am!

Thanks John R for keeping it real!

Yeah, we've all been guilty at one time or another.

Some guidelines from another political forum:

CIVILITY
This is a discussion panel, and not the end of the world.

Make and support your points, and don't diss the debater, but attack or support the subject, not the person.

Make sure that you can back your points, because these folks are sharp!

Watch the sites you use when posting your backup information. It's easy to mistake comedy and satire for reality, not to mention there are a fair amount of bogus info sites out there.

you know, its just like in real life

do not say anything on this board that you would not say out loud to friends and associates if you were hanging out having some coffee together having a conversation.

do not assume you are anonymous therefore you can say anything you please and no one will know its you.

do the right thing.

live and let live. reserve all judgement for yourself.

when you forget to do the right thing, then do the right thing and make it right.

when a thread turns into an ongoing discussion or debate between two people, feel free to take it to PM, email or even phone!

It should be a sticky. . . or mandatory for newbies . . .

John R, I get on this message board for three main reasons: information, a diversion from the stress of everyday life, and just chillin' with some of the friends I've met on this board. So are you suggesting that we have to remember to be comedians or intellectuals (funny or interesting, as the video insisted) as we post, or otherwise we shouldn't comment on this message board, even in the lounge?

We've already been reminded that we shouldn't respond wth just a smiley.

Who is being the Nazi?

You are of course free to interpret that video any way you wish, and if the shoe fits, act accordingly.

By the way, I find all your posts hilarious.

Grazi. Well, my rule is that I will do my best to behave appropriately outside the lounge. You must know by now that behaving appropriately is very difficult for me.

Inside the lounge I will continue to feel free to be me.
