While we have a couple thousand members who regularly peruse our site there are many more than that who are not members but visit us often.

We do not like to limit or censor discussions on this friendly site so we generally only lock threads when they start to get nasty or lead to personal attacks. Recently we have come close a couple of times.

We like it best if everyone picks their fights on those sites and brings their families to this one.
