I would suggest if you are going to run this tight of a ship to where phrases like that aren't going to be accepted, that you go ahead and abolish the open discussion forum before all your users stop coming here completely. It would be better to have them go to a different forum on good terms than for them to leave on bad terms.

It's a case-by-case basis, BigD. Farley was on thin ice. Now he's broken through. Under 99% of the cases, I wouldn't care about a comment like that. But with Farley, is it just one more in a long string of attacks against the forum staff? Look at his recent history of posts, and I think you'd have to agree this is not us running an unreasonably "tight ship". His negative attitude has been tolerated for a very long time. If your "tight ship" claim is true, he and you and many others would have been gone long ago.

The difference between Farley and you is that when you came under closer scrutiny, you've managed to toe the line and not cross it. It's actually difficult to cross that line, but Farley finally managed it.

Honestly I thought he was messing with me as well....tentions are high I suppose.

Im not a prude about jokes everyone here knows me and what I can give and take. (don't do it)

I am the first person to say have fun with it, I do apologize if I missed the joke. Please don't think Farley you cant have fun man cause its cool. Things have been a bit hot and bothered lately so just take that into consideration.

Farley's out of here, unless he's monitoring the forum as a guest.
