Never any problems but I guess when you got power you like to exercise
It's been a fun ride
I would say the same of our forum rules/division and the "flexing" of some self-appointed VIPs.
We gave people latitude. We let people have fun. Then it started getting territorial and we couldn't turn a blind eye to it without trashing the rules that have served us well for 17 years now.
The NFL thread belongs to everyone, not just one clique and, again, that clique wouldn't include you if it weren't open to new people.
We heard the same anti-social complaints last time. "Oh, we can't host the movie thread in General! Then the GENERAL people can participate! We only want these 10 people to be there, and NOBODY ELSE!" Everyone was
fine.
All this additional drama is so needless, but, again, I get that it, too, comes from boredom.
