1. Let's not ban anybody, lock threads, until we can draft some rules on posting in this forum and have an approval process.
2. If you've got beef, just alert and let some people get practice with the jury system.
3. We've got to show we're not "zealots" who stifle discussion. Just out debate someone if you have disagreement at this point.
4. I'd encourage anybody reading this to make a conscious effort to be more civil in DU3.
5. Yes We Can.
