Hey Bill, I think you and I are very similar in that we see problems with the WAY certain topics are discussed, more than WHAT is being discussed. Like implying "if you're not with us you're against us" kinda thing. Silly. I can declare anyone non-patriotic? Of course not! It's silly. The mechanics of conversations is what sucks me in, not so much the opinions expressed.
That being said, linking to stuff outside the board, without actually SAYING anything, is a tricky thing to moderate. It's real easy for us to just skip over it like Phil said. It could have been a link to him winning a show n shine contest or something. This is something us moderators have talked about before, and we always decide to leave the AUP alone, because if we make it more specific, people find more ways around it. What is this board full of lawyers?!? (sorry dad...)
