I'm trying to respect everyone's use of these forums. However, I would just like to say that this is a public place.

We should try to get along, but ultimately just like in real life, we can not stop people from doing what they want to. Also just like in real life, the only time people can be prevented from doing something is if there are clearly written rules, which, if transgressed, results in suspension/jail. To my knowledge neither mike255, blaze223 or I have broken any rules, meriting suspension or reprimand.

In a way, those who complain about not liking someone else's post, that is not breaking any written rules, are infringing on the right of someone to use a public forum. To put it frankly, it's not the responsibility of any member to impose rules on the posts of another, unless a forum rule is clearly broken. And even, in that situation, it's the moderator's job to take any actions needed to remedy the situation, not another member.

I believe in free speech, and as we all know sometimes this can be antagonistic.

This is direected to mike255, blaze223 and to a lesser extent elchan. There was no need to deliberately post Olympic spoiler results. Buy BONDS 19 Aug 13, 16:03

I totally agree, I stepped away from HSX so I could enjoy the games and took about 10-15 Mil hit. I was not allowed to be thin skinned damenchipguy Aug 13, 16:22

some people need to be taught manners. Its a public place but rudeness to others will not be tolerated by the community. {nm} Moviesnob Aug 13, 20:49

I've not seen any rude comments from Mike255 or blaze223, as far as I know, unless you're referring to me. I hope I haven't been rude. elchan Aug 13, 22:22

You are looking at this point the wrong way, IMO. The community is asking for no spoilers islander Aug 14, 06:46

I agree with spoiler warnings on movies and TV shows, but not live sporting events. Olympic soccer and basketball games aired live. {nm} Antibody Aug 14, 11:07

But not live to view for everyone - how is that any different than tv shows not on at the same time for everyone. {nm} JDolphin Aug 14, 14:36

How about the Academy Awards - then it's live - so then it shouldn't need spoilers (although I think people should) {nm} JDolphin Aug 14, 14:38

Olympic soccer and basketball games were aired live, not tape-delayed. If you taped the Academy Awards to watch it later, then Antibody Aug 14, 15:38
