    That thread is called "the cage", where members go to make sure others don't have their time here interrupted by fighting and similar. It's a no win situation for me, no matter what I would do in such a situation. Pick a side, you lose. Ban from threads, you lose. Board bans, you lose. No matter which direction "I" try to steer things, me and the board lose.

    Hence the ignore button, and the steel cage forum.

    It might. And so will you. You're directly questioning Jim's authority. You're kind of entertaining to me even when you're wrong as Hell. Try to not get banned over something this stupid.

    You might find it entertaining to alter people's posts but most people don't. Go back to fighting with Drummond. It goes to what I previously said ... knowing personalities. Perianne's afraid to say the wrong word. Not the person to pick on.

    She's afraid to say the wrong word? Hardly.

    Just speaking as a former forum owner, Admin and Moderator in others, altering another
    member's comments in a quote is a chicken-shit and childish tactic.

    We had people do that in another place, and I would delete the whole post.

    For clarification... and I will update the 1st post in this thread...

    Members CAN still shorten another members post, if necessary. Removing of a video so that it doesn't load over and over. Lots of reasons to shorten a post.

    That, I do often so it does not crowd the whole page with the same statements.
    I will shorten it to the significant point I want to illustrate or discuss.
    That is a whole lot different than altering comments.
