More than a one dimensional community.

In a perfect world (forum), we would all behave like gentlemen, accept each other for who and what he is, listen to what another might have to say and not get emotional or prejudiced because of it and "move on." Is that possible here?

You make a good point, that is the other side of the coin - "Is that possible here?"

My suggestion isn't totally without risk, I know. I'm not advocating a free-for-all. There would still have to be some rules about abuse and name calling, but as long as the discussion remained rational, and everyone still respected the authority of the Mods, as they do now...

Iolaus,
have you been into the anarchists' texts again? Well I hear and it's got potential. not a "gloves off" forum but an 8 ounce bag-glove forum...

yes i wonder if we can all be trusted.

I don't know if it's a good idea. Sure, we're all friends here, but I've gotten in arguements with my friends that lasted for days and I'd hate to see the friendship broken here. I mean, we're guys here, we don't generally like to back down from a fight!

I think it could be done...in any "community" there are disagreements and in most cases things are handled in a mature, reasonable way.
