Hey folks, I know that lately we've had some issues with certain people that find other certain members annoying. And I understand just how annoyed some people can get. I'm the one that has to deal with the PM's and reported posts and all that end of things. But we have to remember that in any community of 10,000+ people, you're going to have issues between different personality types. And I can't just ban people simply because they aren't popular or perhaps happen to be a little less than gifted in the intellectual department (even though it might be somewhat obnoxious). On the other hand, I do take all of your complaints seriously and try to deal with the issues as they occur. So, I'm asking that all of you familiarize yourselves with the "Ignore" feature on these forums. If there is someone that you find obnoxious, go to their profile and click on the button that says, "Add to your ignore list". That, for the most part, should solve your problem. It really IS that easy.

As a community it is important that you, at least to some degree, self moderate. If you see someone post information that isn't correct, please take a minute to post the correct information. If you see someone being a jerk, take a minute to let them know that it's not acceptable. If you see someone posting off topic posts, let them know that we don't allow that. Like any community, it's up to ALL of us to help keep it clean. This does not mean attack every person that you see do something wrong. But often just a polite reminder of what we, as a group, find acceptable and unacceptable is all that is needed. I do not mind stepping in when I have to. But this community will run a lot smoother if we all take it on ourselves to make it a better place.

Thanks
