Gentleman, I know most of you personally have either had meals with you, long conversations taken and given advice. I personally think the world of all of you, now with that said some of us do not get along or take the postings with to much salt and vinagar.
I to have learned the hard way, some people are going to make mistakes even with the best hand held guidence thats Life.
Post by Tennessee Trash since I talked with him on Sunday voiced this concern to me along with his personal and business questions, (Odouls long story)
We are turning people off or insulting them, please we need to keep the critisizm to a min at best. I would like to see nothing more than no more name calling as it is really begining to hurt the sight. We all know who is who and have our opinions we all have tons to contribute, before some of us get yanked lets re read what we post and decide if we really want to say it for everyone to read.
If I do not like someones comment I have said so in private to you via e-mail or phone or shared it in private with a second party (gossip). As many of you know and have gotten my private e-mail or I have gone right to that person. For those of you I have not gone to direct you will be getting an E-mail, I respect your opinion just might dissagree.

Thank you all and may we have a year better than last. If you know me and want to call me I have an all nighter tonight might keep me a little more alert. After 11:00 THANKS going to Indy do not know If my Legal Status allows me on the other sight yet. Just kidding.

Absolutely true. I wish there were a good place to post as a headline the motto: "I can't agree with your position, but I respect your right to believe as you do." All together now...

I think you clearly speak for all of us. It's time to go forward and not be stagnant. Nobody wins the prize when we fight over the rules.

In this business as in any other business you come across individuals with strong class a personalities. They take a stand on an issue and nothing due to their ego will change their mind.
Problems come up when 2 Class a types come up with oposing viewpoints and won't even give the other individual the courtesy of a reply.

Sounds like some TV news programs. My Ex father in law was like that,if the sun was shinning and he decided it was raining ,well it was raining and nothing would change his mind.

But this year the forums on EO hve turned into a cat fight, More threads have been pulled and archived in the last 6 months then in the past 5 years.

Is there an answer ?? If you try to appease one individual the other guy/gal gets upset. Basic courtesy and respect for each other is the answer so BP,keep on coming.I for one ENJOY reading your posts.

Exactly my point earlier today although that thread is gone now also. People need to either say something good and informative and worthwhile or to put it bluntly shut up. There are too many people on here who are more focused on belittling one certain party than providing useful information to the group as a whole. I hope they will soon see it makes them and the forum look bad and grow up.
