Thanks for keeping this site in good order. It's the only BB I even bother to use, because without order there's chaos, as we all well know.
The reason I posted was not to 'bust your chops', but because I would hate to see OldSchool (Eric) feel censored. Eric is kinda cranky at times, but that's what makes him Eric. To me his crankiness is sort of an endearing quality that makes me laugh. It takes all types...
You're job has to be tough at times, and we certainly appreciate your effort. I'm sure there is no way to please everyone on a BB with such a controversial subject.
Take care,
Tim
