Most of the attempts to "ruin the site" in the last few days have been
some opinionated but very civil discussions about the advantages and
disadvantages of bow thrusters on small boats, transom savers on
trailers, and the relative merits of various boating hats. There is
some historic tension between a few posters, but it almost never
breaks out into the sort of content that fans of other venues seem to
promote and enjoy. What's more, the natural momentum of the site is
finally kicking in and even though I have been too busy this week to
post as often as I would like, other members are posting more freely,
spontaneously, and informatively than folks who spend no time there
might imagine possible.

No magic, just a site where "the golden rule" is SOP and there is a
small amount of organization and structure. While that "ruins" it for
some, others seem to be enjoying it and the modest amount of structure
has allowed folks who don't get along elsewhere (or haven't in the
past) to converse in a civil fashion.

FYI, wrecked boats is seldom mentioned on the other site. In my
opinion, it would be entirely OK if the other site were never
mentioned here. I'd respectfully suggest that you folks have enough
problems of your own to iron out on this board without trying to
comment on problems you think exist elsewhere.

Have a wonderful day, one and all.

That post was totally unnecessary and counterproductive. If your desire is
simply to inflame, Harry, JimH, and Don are doing just fine, thank you.

I notice you make no comments about their continuous name-calling, fight
provoking, and otherwise immature behavior over here, Chuck.

Shame on you.

We are dealing with our problems just fine chuckie, thank you so much
for your concern. But really, your backhanded insults don't really
help much anyway. If you are so disinterested in this site you should
probably stop coming here and reading/posting them here.

Please notice, Scott; my rare appearances here are restricted to
refuting a variety of rumors and charges regarding another web site.
If the posters at this site don't want to hear from me, don't bring up
my name or my newly prefered venue in conversation. Pretty simple
formula.

Have a splendid weekend. It's June, go boating. :-)

This is too funny. Chuck, this is a public NG. Anyone can post about
you, your venue, your band of troublemakers, and anything else they'd
like, and you can do squat about it. That's one of the reasons you
took your ball and went home, remember?

However, when your band of snarkies continue to come over here and
call names, pick fights, and just generally act like asses, you can
not seriously be surprised when the subject of you and your venue
comes up over here, and it spills over into your venue. You reap
precisely what you sow.

Now I'm sure we'll all get the "everyone get a clean slate at my
place" routine. The big question is; aren't you getting tired of
wiping your main member's slates clean? They're here on a daily basis
defecating and rolling around in their own poop. You must keep a
firehose at your front door.

You mean, Usenet is a public forum? 80

And anbyody is free to bitch when I respond. As I did, and as somebody

Does not compute. Don't have a "band of snarkies", and there isn't
anybody posting to rec.boats who hasn't and didn't post here for many,
many years. I'm not sowing anything, and the only behavior for which I
am responsible on wreck.boats is my own.

Funny thing is, that overall there's no firehose needed. People behave
differently in different places. As I said, I have no control over how
other people act.....and gawdonlyknows that nobody has any control
(and only a few have self control) in wreck.boats
