How about a STRICT "No Name Calling Rule" on Hoseheads?
I know people disagree, but WAY too many insulting, vile & hostile comments
How about "I beg to differ" or " I think you're wrong on that"?
By strict I mean one warning, 2 strikes, you're out....
This stuff is supposed to be FUN, right?????

I'm all in! I may have a potty mouth but I do my best to treat others as I'd wish done unto me. I don't care if one is black, white , yellow, brown, straight , gay, whatever your political or religious preference or whatever other label we put upon ourselves. If you're nice to me I'm nice to you. Although some make it sooooo hard sometimes lol

How about the "board monitor" (and yes, I know it isn't Alan) do their job and monitor the board? 2 or 3 years ago there was zero swearing on this board. Now it is wide open. Is it maybe time to reign it in a bit?

 Anytime you might think you're up to it, let me know. I think my overall knowledge of the sport will hold up rather well against yours, solely based on what I read in your posts. Still, I won't and wouldn't call you stupid. A good number of people on this site can see that without my help. lol

That's not technically name-calling as "stupid" is not a name per se, it's an adjective. Get it right you big maroon.

I've pissed people off with hostile comments on OTHER websites, where i consider myself more of an expert. I'm relatively new to sprint cars compared to most of the people here, so not so opinionated. I always speak my mind, but try to show respect, unlike a recent poster (we all know who....)

As long as everyone agrees that 360's suck; always have; always will, I am fine with that rule.

How do you feel about 305s? Haha we really shouldn't start this. Not to mention I've ate a lot of crow really enjoying the 305 division at Knoxville. Those guys put all the effort into it just like he big dogs and still go to work on Monday. I can relate. They have been amazing this year. Close racing and I never know who is going to win. I wish support classes would feed upper classes like we say they would but I usually just notice them stealing cars from above and adding a few newer ones who usually never take the step up.

You need to take in a couple of the 360 shows at Jackson Motorplex. I'm sure you woud enjoy what you see.

Don't be afraid to share your opinion. If you're wrong they'll let you know. Hopefully without any name calling. 
I have been coming here since day one and actually had/have my own board that I asked them to take down a few years ago when I shut down my website after 15 years. I see that it's still up and people are still posting so I don't know what the delay is but I gave notice and am not moderating it anymore so not my problem. They used to get after me for being too strict.
