Like two rednecks who whip the pure T hell outta each other in the parking lot... and then stagger back inside laughing about it to buy each other a beer. I say this fight is over... now who needs a cold one?

If only beer could be posted in a drinkable format. Wouldn't that make us a rowdy lot!

Couldn't have written a finer post, Moeceefus.

Welcome aboard, BTW.

The only problem with the community argumentation is.. that a community is formed by more than 1 people and usually is based on democracy where multiple voices and opinions can be heard and not communism where if ur opinion is against or differ from the leadership u get banned or worst.

To make sure that the democracy will not become anarchy inside a comunity, there are rules. And these rules are focused against illegal activities, talks and so, not against criticism and different opinions. I suppose we all here live in countries that are based on democracy and we all stand up for what that means.

Hey... it's not like we can't agree to disagree. Do I agree with Neal's stance? Nope. Do I understand where he's coming from? Yep. Can I agree to play by his rules when I'm posting on his site? Yep. I'm a big enough man to do so... I trust that Neal's big enough to stick by his rules.

I've got to give him and the moderators credit, too. Like JC said, it's not like they banned UG. They locked the threads (didn't even delete 'em), stated why (though I believe they could've done it a bit more friendly-like), and that was that. UG didn't get keelhauled, tossed in the brig, or even forced to "wear" that nurse avatar for a week or two

.

I second that downloadable beer idea, as long as we can do it with whiskey, too. Whiskey makes the world a better place.
