The ignore feature alone is worth gold.
You can get around much of the petty stuff that way and banter with only those you know can handle it and bring something to the discussion.
Short-term ignores work wonders for getting past contentious subjects.
Hope you enjoy being a regular joe around here as much as I have.

I suspect he's been a mod elsewhere as have others here. It's a lot more fun not to have to watch over things and if I were a mod here I'd be much more subdued with my posting and never be confrontational in public. There's benefits in being part of the crowd.
Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.

He was a mod here when I first joined the site. He stepped down.
Thank you to all donated to the Jason Witten Camp drive!

We need wins, and that's all we need. I don't give a damn about anyone on this roster over wins. I'd trade Ware, Lee and Dez if it meant more wins.

This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.

Congratulations are in order...
FIrst to Hos...It was never an easy job but you handled it well and your promotion was well deserved.
Second to WoodysGirl...Why you needed the added punishment is beyond me but the Admin role is in your most capable hands now and I am thankful for that.
Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a great ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair....Bertrand Russell

It's a dark day for this rforum, but I console myself with the knowledge you'll still be around...
If it's what you feel is best for you, then I support your decision...

I know. I was here when you joined. Hos and I both go back to the forum before the last forum.
I was talking about jterrel's comment. Sorry I should have quoted it.

And here I've been blaming Jerry all this time. 
Captain Nathan Brittles: "Only the man who commands can be blamed. It rests on me... mission failure!"
"Jerry Jones is a billionaire fan who bought his own team for the express purpose of buying his way into the game. He wants to hang out with the players, stand in front of the cameras, be the face of the team (yech), make personnel moves as if this were a video game, and more than anything else, be seen as the guy who made it all happen."

Is this the equivalent of a high profile personality being put in with the general population?

The one (long time mod) that I don't think ever gave me a warning or infraction.
Welcome to the free world Hos. 
Formerly the notorious nyc!
I've got more red flags than Soviet Russia!
There is a good chance that you don't like me, but there is a better chance that I don't care.
If I'm not insulting you, I'm probably not aware that you exist.
Jerry Jones in the draft room is suicide on the football field. The line of scrimmage is EVERYTHING. Something Jerry doesn't understand.
