Default opinion?

The following post has been written by our frien Karl.

My opinion is that this post is one of the best written overhere lately.

What's yours?


QUOTE:

Now children, let's all play nice This is a public forum, so there is bound to be things posted here that not everyone agrees with. Jdrew posted some pictures he finds funny, it's his right. He had the good manners to label the content as "Not Safe For Work", indicating the content may be questionable to some. Lane interpreted the posters one way, and chose to comment as such, which is his right as well. Lanes personal opinion post, while possibly questionable itself to some, was not insulting or vindictive, simply an opinion. Importkiller, who always has strong opinions and let's his feeling knownto posters he thinks are being insulting or ridiculous, felt he was coming to the aid of a fellow member, but whose original post was maybe a bit over the top, but later corrected it. Dennis was just trying to keep the peace and maintain the high standards this forum has always enjoyed, while still allowing some of our more colorful members to express their opinions (and does an excellent job IMO). So I think everyone needs to cool down and relax.
I don't believe for a moment that anyone here thinks Jdrew would abuse his authority (unless maybe there's some H3X embroidered headrests involved), and the humor in those posters certainly is more indicative of a way for people in the industry to relieve stress through humor, not a enforcement practice. Jdrew posts are always a welcome, with much humour and useful info (and certainly his fair share of crap too)
Lane interprets them as abuse of power. If it was police policy, sure, but they are meant to be funny; and as satire, they are funny (IMO). Lanes own contributions have shown he enjoys humor, but this was clearly not his cup of tea. No worries. Keep posting, Lane.
Importkiller, your support of your friends is admirable, as is your willingness to let your opinion be known, but sometimes we all need to take a double take before posting. Everyonesown opinions, while always valid, sometimes need some further inspection, especially when emotions are involved, or when there is a chance of misinterpretation. As always, forum posts are always open to misinterpretation, so should always be taken with a grain of salt. Your knowledge and contributions to the forum are many and much appreciated, and when some troll or Lame-o comes along, your reprimands are clearly some of the great ones, so save your sharp wit for them.
Dennis, keep up the good work, I know you are trying to keep everyone happy and keep the content respectful. Hummerforums, is, and always has been the best place for Hummer owners and aficionados to learn and laugh!

Holy crap! I'm beginning post like Hummerguy!

Cliff notes version : Open forum posting may offend some, but let's all get along!

Very well said. Basically it comes down to 1 thing...not necessarily Admin "policing" but the policing of ourselves from time to time. it's called common courtesy towards others.
