I wanted to start and sticky this to let everybody know what each mod is looking for. Makes it easier to for everybody involved so we all know what to expect.
Personally I just want people to treat each other with at least a little respect. I am all for having a little fun and poking fun at each other but come on people...some of the name calling and attacking of each other is just sad. We are all human after all. If I see continued attacks on another person in a vulgar manner I will warn you in that thread. If it keeps on I will ban you for the day. If it happens later in the day you will be banned for the rest of that day and the day after. If it continues to happen day after day you are gone. We have no need for that kind of thing here.
Posts that contain personal attacks or inflammatory statements/remarks will be moved to the un-moderated FIGHT CLUB or VENTING section of the forums.
All we can ask of each other is a little civil back and forth regardless of what side of the trade you are on. I do not think that is too much to ask.
That said I will not ban anybody for actions in the FIGHT CLUB or VENTING sections of the forums. These are enter at your own risk sections that are put there for a reason.
I would like the other MODS to unlock this thread and add to it what you expect from our board members.
Remember it is a privilege to be here...not a right.
Thanks

Guys, fair warning, NY, Swift, Micgrow can do whatever they want.
If they ban you, do NOT come running to me.
If you break the rules they will ban you.
We are going to have a nice respectful place here from this point forward.
SBG

Would just like to add that I've no intentions of rushing to judgment on anyone.
Heck, I'm the one who always used to give kid the benefit of the doubt time and time again. With me it'll be simple. Three strikes and you're out for a day...maybe more depending on the situation. But somehow I doubt it'll reach that point.
Glad to be aboard SBG and Swift.

I had some personal issues as of late but I am back in the loop now. I am glad to see SBG appointed two very deserving moderators.
My goal is simple here: To allow free discussion, unbiased and un edited opinion/facts from both sides of thought. A true representation of market stance includes all sides of the argument. We owe it to the members who choose this MB to create an environment which effectively conveys this goal without the clutter of off topic posts and personal agendas.
When a members actions get in the way of this I will do everything I can to move the post/lock the topic, with my last option being banning the individual. The fewer people we have posting productive discussion the less accurate representation of the market we will have.
Be smart everyone, and there will be valuable free information that is easy to access.
