about not only WHAT we say but HOW we say it. Like most posts after these blow outs people will comment that so and so would never say that to the persons face. PLEASE let's all try to gentlemen and gentlewoman.

some very interesting comments....

1) Scott V., you make a pretty decent argument on how you want this to be a Z3 only forum, and how there are low lives out there who use profanities, just to go on and attack the 'gay crowd' (as you call them) with profanities yourself. Grow up.

2) Gary, you make the best argument; if you don't like the post, ignore it. I agree very much. There will always be posts which are intended solely to get our blood pressure going, and we bite the bait every time. If you don't like the post, simply ignore it. Don't go on responding to it and later whine how inappropriate it was. As far as your comments on Vidterry, I can't agree 100%. Him and I had disagreements but I always felt there was some level of respect for difference in opinions. He did, like most of us, lose temper occasionally but he was lured into it. His biggest mistake was replying to the posts and taking it personally. I will miss him.

3) Michael T., again how appropriate. Statement that one has never broken a speed limit may be hard to believe but I am sure there are people out there who drive that way. Calling somebody a liar or telling them they are lame for owning a 'sports car' and never driving above speed limit is just as bad. How childish is that? They may be full of it, but why are you getting all wound up?

I am sorry to tell you gentlemen, but I think that Vidterry has left because of people like you (with exception to Gary).

Anyway, those are my thoughts. Feel free to attack as you wish.

Mel
