If you have it in mind to debate with others on a topic - please take it to the debate subforum. And if there is a discussion in the main forum that is starting to look more like a debate, make a new thread about it in the debate subforum. In the future, I will try harder to move debate-turned-discussion into the debate subforum if necessary.

I apologize for neglecting my duties as moderator in the recent events in this guild. I failed to recognize abusive talk, harsh words, flaming, and closed-minded arguments. As a result, I failed to step in and put an end to it before things got out of hand. I ask that you would please accept my apology and listen to my aforementioned request.

Thank you. biggrin

Edit: Link is making this an announcement. And... I ask that you respect Mike on this as well.
