Who thinks Fisherwoman brags?

[JohnR]

I'd like to add on to some of what Got Stripers and some others have said.

The Internet, by nature of its annonymity, allows people to go more loose cannon than they may ordinarily do. That can be good at times or it can turn negative in a situation like this and go overboard. I'll be the first to admit that a good battle with the foundation of a good topic can be alot of fun but sometimes it can get out of hand and burn people. Another person that I've been friendly with over the years has decided to limit his message board travels because of something that happened elsewhere on some other board (I'm not sure what and I didn't think it my place to dig too deep). He say's that he'll swing by occasionally but his contributions and positive attitude won't be easily replaced either.

Let's stir the pot on occassion to keep things smooth and warm and to keep things from getting dull. Let's think a little before we really offend someone.

This thread could have started with a different tone, worded in a different way, and none of this would have happened. I don't think I've ever met the fella that started this thread so I can't say if he's malicious (sp?, the next board will have a spell checker I promise) by nature or not, but let's think a bit before posting. My 2 cents.
