What is important is the social standing of a person who uses Over50 forums in real life.

O.K. May, I for one will make every effort to get back to normal inside, but not outside this forum.
This will be very difficult for me, but I will try, honest I will!

Is it me , as these up their own backside posters I find project rudeness and would they consider this response hostile?

I wouldn't have picked up on that comment at the time, but seeing it now it does stand out, but so what. its there opinion after all.

Re: Polite discourse vs hostility and rudeness
I kinda like it the way it is,as adults we can and do have opinion's and quick comebacks that usually set the rude one's back on their heels.Please lets not over moderate,it will turn into a goody 2 shoes site, and that is the reason I have chosen here.There is already enough of those.Let's leave it as is.We all have scroll buttons if you dont like the thread scroll by it.That's what I do.There are alot of us that have left another forum because of Over-Moderation,Mod Favorites.and frankly it has been a exodus of huge numbers because of it.I know I haven't been here as long as others,But I think It is a Great Place to be and spend a few Hours.Let's leave it as is.Thanks.22-11-2015, 01:18 PM
