    I hereby declare that I will never post in the tPF discussion forum. A) Cause I'm a turd dropper that will never be invited and B) I'm all out of righteous indignation and this is my last hope.

It is meant to be largely self-moderating and its membership decide if a member is behaving improperly and should be voted out of the group. TBH we want the discussions to be seen, not only by the membership, but by non-members as well. If you don't want to read it, check out the forum name before you click on the post. There is also no reason why you cannot start a parallel discussion on the same topic in one of the regular forums.

    Well who is defining "adult behavior"? Are they an adult? Did they take the "adult behavior" class? Have they never lost it? Named called? Insulted? If it is self-moderating why are you moderating the people who can attend?

    Pretty childish and divisive in my opinion...

    Its based on a 75% vote and this forum splits the entire forum down the middle and it delineates the favored sons and relegates others to forum scrubs. Now if thats what your intention is and I believe its probably the intention of a couple then you did the right thing.

    So now we have the Elite VIPs and now we have the Elite TPF forum members. So whats the next brainstorm going to be to fragment the forum even more.

    If you really have a problem with the way posters post theres other ways to handle it than to insult demean and separate half the forum.

    This is my opinion, does it bother me ? no not at all Im just stating how I view it since GRC mentioned it.

    Talking about morale, if this isnt a morale busting idea nothing you could come up with is. It certainly doesnt promote forum harmony and cohesion and civility when you split people up and compartment them.
