All good comments.

Unrealistic... but good comments.

Shall we call you Mao or Stalin???



Just kidding, while I agree that discussions should be polite, the rest is not going to happen.

Why?

1. This is free world.

2. Freedom of Speech (we do not restrict that where I come from).

3. This is an internet forum, if all those things are restricted the place would be boring!

No smiley faces from me on that post Chris.... If Mr. Pacifist wants a Board like that, he's gonna have to make his own Website and go from there, cause there aint a single oeon the net like what he described....

Unrealistic is an understatement...
