To those who choose to bicker. . .

[rev-ed]

I've deleted yet another thread that had degenerated into a "my series is better than your series" flame war. I've been trying to edit & squeeze out some good conversation between the infighting, but I'm too busy to do it. Flaming one series or another is against the User Agreement and won't be tolerated.

It's not what you say, it's how you say it.

It wasn't your post. It was what i did with it. I accept responsibility for it.

See what happens people call others lemmings? Is the problem the insult itself or the response?

Hey. How about a special "bickerboard" flambeau. Only those who enjoy bickering their life away can qualify for membership and application must be accompanied by a photograph.
I've given up trying to rid my desert property of ants but have learned that they can be led away from the home to live and do their thing on the perimeter.

rev, I agree with your intent, I hope you continue to speak softly and use the big stick, I thought I was done with that stuff, but with the influx of new "visitors," and people who belong here and should know better,it has gotten way out of hand. In answer to that, I had fallen back on my old ways.

Things should return to normal soon, when the wheels start to roll again, Off-season has become a PITA.

What rings she asks... one looked like a USAC champ ring... one looked like a Indy 500 champ ring...

It is both.

It's hard enough dealing with the original insults and flames, but when people start responding in a similar fashion, it's just a mess. Best solution: when flames occur, ignore them. They just want to get you upset anyway. This suggestion is for CART fans and IRL fans alike.

BTW - jandj, don't believe I saw your post, but I'm sure it was wonderful.

Speaking of wonderful , thanks for the look at the lil' cutie , Rev !

She's a real sweetheart .My best to you and the Missus !
