After reading through all of the topics about...
1. Moderators being out of control.
2. Members threatening others.
3. ...and all of the other bickering BS
I think we should all take a minute to REALLY look at ourselves, and ask ourselves... "Why am I truely here?"
I think that if we all just take a moment to reflect on how we treat each other and conduct ourselves on the board, then things will get better around here. Think of the Golden Rule... "Treat others as though you would want to be treated yourself." Treat each of your fellow board members AND guests with the respect that you yourself would want to be shown, and the little stuff will take care of itself, because there wouldn't be anyone to take it to a higher level of immaturity.
I myself have had differences with some other members, but BOTH of us were mature enough to keep it respectful and we never had to regret anything we said to each other. There's no lingering bitterness to carry over to the next topic.
Try to take a moment out of your day and see if you can set aside the antimosities that you hold towards one another just long enough to treat each other with some respect and dignity. You'll be amazed at how quickly things can make a turn for the better with this approach.
Thanks, and have a great day
