It's about this forum, this ba.com. In a recent conversation with a fellow member he had this to say...
"... some of those guys don't use the forum for it's greatest feature, which is to personally meet as many of the members as possible. I tell you what, I must have met at least 100 guys from the forum, and 99% of them have been an absolute treat to be around."
That statement sums up just about everything I feel about this place.
To continue fostering a sense of community I'd suggest a zero tolerance policy towards political posts. Zero! Add to that a ban on gun related threads (which are always U.S. dominated in this, an international forum) and we have a near perfect platform for repose, helpfulness and lighthearted banter.
I with to thank all those who strive to keep it clean and respectful of each other and the AUP. I look forward to meeting more of you as time moves on.
