It's a slow descent into the mire...
hskwarrior is right. Flame wars are pretty addictive. But things got out of hand. I hate to be the wet blanket, but we do have a business to run here and when our main forum is a string of obscenities, it makes it hard to sling mags and gear, especially with black friday coming up so quickly. Sure, we get more page views, but it's all the same addicted eyeballs, and I've sold a lot to you all already. I need to open things up and sell more to those glorified kickboxers and fantasy martial artists to pay the bills around here. ;)
I appreciate your cooperation in this matter.
