Yeah, I'm not a troll or a trouble maker. Don't have to read the rules, I already know them. "Treat others withe same respect you would want". I stayed away for a while because of some things I read. Awesome job! This is a much better place! I support it 100%!!!!!!! Plan on being here a while!

[rel14]

Sounds good to me,,

[Guest Johnny]

So seeing it is a new warning system you will be starting everyone on an even field of zero points I take it?

Or would that be wrong?

[Harry P.]

Unless Gregg says otherwise, I think that we should zero out everyone and start fresh as of today.

[Guest]

Wasn't there an email sent out to everyone a couple of weeks ago concerning this or was I the only one that got one?

[Harry P.]

Yes, there was.

Just Kidding Glad to see it all go into effect.....

Cheers to All ......Don aka XJ6

I never got the email either. Strange.

[mikemodeler]

Didn't get the email either.I can see where it shows I have 1 warning, but not really concerned since the new rules have been implemented and the changes have started to make a difference in the way everyone behaves.

[crazyjim]

Where's this new pinned topic?

Never mind, Harry. I found it and read the guidelines.

Crystal clear, they are. Should help keep the place running smooth.

[george 53]

WoW! I'm gonna be a ZERO again? Yeeesh, I was feelin like a somebody for a minute there! Oh, I got it now, we startin OVER! Ok that's cool, I can deal with bein a Zero again.

[Nick Notarangelo]

heres the question?? HOW MANY WARNING POINTS DOES HARRY HAVE?

[george 53]

Nick, unless he's given them to himself, I'd venture to say he doesn't have any. I noticed I'mma zero again, an that feels rather normal for me. I like bein lo-key! :lol:

No, the real question is ... "How many warning points does Harry GIVE?"

[uncle potts]

I'm personally glad to see this. I've quit reading some threads because the bickering had gottten so bad. Now we can get back to the reason most of us came here to begin with, talking models.

[Jantrix]

Will a PM from the mod giving the warning point be sent so the reciever of the point knows exactly what he/she did to recieve it?

If not I see a few WHAT DID I DO? threads popping up.

[PARTSMARTY]

I THINK EVERYBODY SHOULD KNOW WHAT COMMON DECENCY AND COMMON SENSE ARE AND TREAT EVERYBODY THAT WAY-PERIOD.!!

MANNERS AND POLITENESS NEVER HURT ANYONE.

[george 53]

Marty, what your describeing is the "Golden Rule" If you were raised PROPERLY that should just be a given. WHAT it has to do with haveing every model you ever wished for is beyond me. Just treat folks the way YOU'D like to be treated. Simple enough, don'tcha think?

If everyone did that, we wouldn't need rules in the first place.

Unfortunately, like they say, common sense is actually not very common.

I think what he means is, since UTOPIA means a perfect world, is that in a perfect world we would have common sense and courtesy from everyone. AND in a perfect world we would also have everything we always wanted.

[george 53]

Just depends on ones version of Utopia, Kevin. I'm pretty happy in my world and it suits me just fine. But thank you for the explination, it is appericiated.
