This is my first post in this particular forum. Having scrolled through several threads and reading people's thoughts I am beginning to wonder whether this forum is a good idea. I hate to see Ironworks members argue, flame and insult each other and it seems to me that there has been a lot of this going on lately. I, for one, would love to see people openly giving their opinions, being civil to one another and to accept that not everyone can agree on everything. I want to be an active poster in this forum but am worried about other people perhaps misunderstanding what I say, or flaming me because I don't entirely agree with their points of view. I know everyone is agitated and somewhat tense after the events of the past few months, but we must try and put those feelings aside and discuss these matters in a mature, responsible way. Whether we agree with someone else or not is irrelevant, we must all try to get along while debating matters in here. Don't forget - we are all friends and should act as such!

Sorcerer Alex,

You are more than welcome to this forum. New posters is actually what we need to bring it back to life. Don't worry about me, I promise you that I won't attack you and that I'll respect you.

Cheers, welcome and thank you for giving us a chance

Please come onboard and express your opinions.

Flaming and insulting each other is wrong here, wrong in your office, and just plain wrong everywhere. Arguing is ok though. Expressing differing opinions, is what opinions are all about!

I've posted many, many times here and can't remember being flamed once. My opinion isn't always popular, and I frequently have to defend it(which is sometimes a losing battle ), but the bottom line is that this forum is for an exchange of ideas.

Personalities are usually the problem here, not the discussion of politics. Post your opinion, and whether I agree or not, I'll defend your right to say it! If your wrong, I'll tell you why

Just kidding, say what you want here. You'll enjoy posting as long as you don't get personal. If someone gets personal with you, report it! Even if it's me

WELCOME!

I thought I'd stick my head in and say Hi!

I hope all my friends are still here and I want to thank you for all the nice things that many of you have said to and about me. It made it very hard to stay away. It seems that the storm has died down here quite a bit and we should try to keep it that way. The way this Forum looks and acts is a reflection on us all!

It has felt like I've been away for a long time (1 whole day!) but that says something about all of you. It is just like a family here and I don't intend to leave again. (Sort of like running away from home like a kid!)

Hang loose and be good!

Ha! Good! Knew you couldn't keep away! Addictive, isn't it?
