Some members do want to remain neutral, but there is no question that they are agitated at seeing this stuff aired out across the board when it should be entirely in one forum-the politics forum. Part of self-moderation is that more than just a few voices are heard. So far, the only voices that carry sway on this board, are the voices of about five people. While the two guys who have posted have since retracted parts of their statements-it would be foolish to ignore their concerns that other probably hold, but haven't aired out yet since they are not confrontational people. Those people don't fight with members, they just simply go to other boards like CW where membership is huge and fighting is way down. Coincidence perhaps?

On another note, look at my 1,000 post contest thread. I start the board's first contest out of a desire to bring something to the table and to get to know other BOTLs. Yet, it's polluted with personal vendettas and garbage posts that ridicule me. In no way in that thread, has anyone else been baited by me. In fact, the opposite is true. Yes, I too want to see passes, trades, and splits. But you aren't going to see that if the members who will do such things have their offers smeared and plastered with off-topic gripes and inappropriate posts.
LMAO!! Scotty is such a fake and a phoney it's laughable "a desire to bring something to the table" YEAH RIGHT!! His only desire was to "get even" and it blew up in his face

I remember that Scotty made some smart-assed remark about how I should get a prescription for Zoloft or some other psycho drug. I wonder why Scotty has such intimate knowledge of drugs like that? I'd bet anyone here a fiver of Padron 1926 #1s that SCOTTY has a prescription for Zoloft or something similar because it's as clear as day that he has psychological problems.

Can you imagine the principal or superintendent of his school system having to deal with a mental case like this guy? Heck, never mind them how about the STUDENTS and the PARENTS of those students having to deal with a teacher like this who gets abused by ole Scotty. I can guarantee you this has happened.

I hope you got that resume dusted off Scotty my guess is you're going to need it because if you handle your job the same way you handle yourself here, you're sure to be fired for insubordination or abuse.
