I am not looking for polite forums, but it might be nice if they were civil...at least players painted with the same brush.

I may be new-er to the game, but I am no fool... Nor am I incapable of seeing the attack of those who would like to maintain status quo. The paradigm of change is a difficult concept for some, perhaps as yourself, but it will help improve the game - perhaps even graduate it to another level altogether. Tradition is the biggest wall to advancement. If you would like to keep your status quo, fill your boots. However, I can tell you that I am not usually the first to comment on things; thus, since I have commented, how many "newbie" players come, played, enjoyed, but were subsequently turned off by the immaturity and lack of even treatment in the forums, and left. Lord knows I am just about done watching it.

Up to you guys. What's important to you? The maintenance of the ability to hack and slash and throw daggers in the forums? Oh wait, that'll just be the long timers who have that ability, as someone like me would get their "post removed" if I attacked someone who's been here for longer and made a name, indeed friends, for themselves... Let's try that shall we? Why don't I start lambasting every post I disagree with? How long do you think it would take before I got blocked?

Like I said before, it's an observation as to uncivilized, unnecessary, and unsportsmanlike conduct - and uneven application of some kind of unprinted code of conduct. But, if you decide Neanderthal-ically to allow it, then allow it across the board; because there are a few people I wouldn't mind saying a thing or two to. NEWB's are the future of HSX! Without them, HSX has no growth potential. I would save my sarcasm for the less equipped and restrict this "aggression masked by attempt at humor" for issues that make a difference.

Your call. I am but a simple member - and aren't we all? Let's attract and KEEP new players, shall we? Not all of us want to have degraded forums apparently populated with and frequented by 12 year olds.

When will the feud end, and where is the moderator in the forums when the BIL$boys are taking swipes at each other... Port Value League Admin Sep 07, 20:19

Same post without all the font instructions. Port Value League Admin Sep 08, 00:07

Well said. {nm} Antibody Sep 08, 10:29

Incidentally, how many accounts do you have such that you can call me a newb with: H$6,548,068? Who are you really? {nm} Port Value League Admin Sep 08, 00:10

Or perhaps that was a "vote"... if it was, please disregard my response rant. Port Value League Admin Sep 08, 00:13

Who am I? (Besides the title of a Who song) Just a newbie. No offense was intended. We were all newbies once. DTravel Sep 08, 12:38

DTRavel, since I barked back in forum I shall apologize in the same manner. I am sorry that I saw your post as sarcasm vs. support. {nm} Port Value League Admin Sep 08, 18:59

No worries, its forgotten. {nm} DTravel Sep 08, 21:52

to HSX's credit they scribbled Facto but... RazorHawk Sep 08, 09:51

If "several players e-mail you" then is no good , they should email HSX staff it has no practical purpose to email you since you are not HSX Guillo Sep 08, 17:34

thank you for being rude in a thread about rude posters... RazorHawk Sep 08, 18:27

Are you serious? How I am being rude? Where is the offense here? Guillo Sep 09, 06:50
