Thread Pruned: Could we try to keep the invective and stereotyping to private fora elsewhere ...? /rhetorical question

Well that seems to have exhausted the sand supply ... move along while we refill the box ...

Thread Pruned: If you have questions/concerns about the moderation/admin of the board, I would/am be more than happy to discuss the matter through PM. Conjecture and rumours do nothing other than hurt people and create an atmosphere that is toxic. Though I am very appreciative of the community's pasison for one another, there is a place to discuss concerns and that is through the PM system.

Please feel free to contribute to the ongoing discussion. There is a lot of interest in this topic and keeping input centralised and presented in a clear and articulate manner will have more impact and influence than posting to the contrary Please do not post if you do not have anything constructive to add. There are new members arriving all of the time - so post with respect and in a constructive nature. If you do not, I will act as though the intent is to SPAM! I am well aware that there is no perfect solution for those who have been members for a long time and who find this ongoing discussion problematic - to say the least. I know that K3 threads are touchy items for you trollish denizens - to be specific - but do remember this may be a new topic for people who arrive in our community. So I would ... no I expect respectful treatment. If you do not want to talk about K3 - THEN DO NOT POST! Treat anyone - especially those new travellers from out Cyberway - without courtesy and hospitality makes the Big Green ornery ... See previous threads: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18

Ah well ... off to the next installment ...

Thread Pruned: I am grateful that people engage in such discussions. I would be appreciative that, if someone has posted something with which we disagree or find issue, we will recognise how we respond to one another is a matter of our choice. And in addition, do please try to post on topic. Feel free to share opinions as they are appropriate. Honouring one's own faith journey is a gift indeed, but please realise that in a pluralistic society, many are on different paths. "In all things; balance."

Thanks.

Well I think it is time to sweep up the sand and thank everyone for their contribution ...

Well this can't get any better than it began ... thanks for playing the AotS nomination game ... watch the Oscars to see the winner for this year's pwned thread ...

And welcome to derailment - take a look around, snap a few pics ... and then back on to the AotS tour bus ...

I am so glad to see such enthusiasm for future-oriented potentials. Feel free to contribute here: http://forums.obsidianent.com/index.php?showtopic=40215

Ah the smell of derailment ...

Well clearly we have moved from constructive behaviour to ...

I think that we have arrived at the end of the Winter Olympics in this venue ...

Thread Pruned - Could we try to not to bait/flame one another? /rhetorical question

Well that seems like an invitation to say "night night Gracy" ...

Thanks y'all

A moment of thanks please for this latest addition to the AotS ...

Well it seems that a timeout is required in the sandbox ... move along while we sweep up the spill ...

Well all Squads eventually meet their arch-nemesis ... some it's age, others it's financing, sometimes there's someone smarter or more brutish ... in this case I suspect it's SPAM ... nice to have seen the good fight fought so long in the sandbox ...

Ah well time for some newness ... of I know let's try for another installation of this ongoing saga ...

Thanks!

Well I thank you all for the green observation ... but I would really not want to see arachnophobia affect anyone adversely.

I believe that we have at derailment with a tone that I can only suspect will end up being less than productive.
