Please read and take this seriously....

Everyone.... at this point I will be deleting any posts that contain name calling, abuse directed at another member, and **** in place of a word as we all know the intent of such ****. I appologise to any one who finds this harsh but due to recient abusive members, things are going to crack down just a bit until this blows over. I invite anyone with questions or comments regarding this decision to contact me to discuss it or contact admin. I will be deleting ANYTHING not pertaining to the TOPIC of a Thread. If you are intent on spamming a Thread, that spam will be deleted. Consider this fair warning.

As we have found in other forums, there are some members who are only here to cause upset, the best way to deal with them is not to respond. At this point, my advice for all of you is to ignore anyone who fits this description.

PLEASE! Everyone continue posting your poems, facts, ideas, opinions, thoughts and stories. Your efforts ARE very much appreciated and thoroughly enjoyed! Like them or not, think about them, respect what people have posted. If you disagree with or just don't understand what you've read, discuss it without becoming insulting. IT CAN BE DONE!

Thank you all for your cooperation and understanding.

Kind of like an old scratched LP!

Except you can't give it a quick thump to make it skip to the next track.
