Up to this point, anyone with enough gall to even ask a question or post a concern has recieved a speedy and thorough beat down, delete or bounce.
I don't necessarily disagree with your first post, but(again), it sure seems like a lot of BS to just sit down, drink a beer, and exercise the first amendment. In the end it still places a bunch of responsible adults into a daycare atmosphere.
As an example - One of my last conversations in the Tav was with you (COLB). To be short, through the middle of that exchange, it did get a little heated. Trying to get a point across to someone who isn't following your points is very frustrating. In the end though, you and I, and the people following it came to the realisation that it was more of a misunderstanding of initial premise than argument. In the end I felt no harm was done and no hard feelings were had. Unfortunately I feel someone saw the middle of that exchange, didn't follow it to it's conclusion, and blasted me out. If they would have seen the progression to the end they would have seen that it turned out to be a positive for all involved.
If the content and exchanges aren't allowed to happen freely (within reason of course) what's the point? And I have a feeling that TPTB at Taunton are not interested in the free flow in the Tavern type topics.
I feel that there should be less restriction and a better definition of the ones that remain, than more.
But, I aint holdin' out hope that Taunton really give a dropping.
I don't have ALL the answers...just along for the ride for now...
