A Gentle Caution

[winkiebear]

I understand that tensions are high and tempers may flare, but please be aware of wording in this Forum.  We all have opinions, beliefs, and outlooks on just about every topic that could arise.  A poorly worded post could potentially cause friction between yourself and another community member, and could be construed as racism, bigotry, or worse.  



Although it has not happened yet, please be aware that this Forum IS moderated, and that posts can be edited and/or deleted for content, as stated in the Terms of Service.  



Some posts have come close to crossing the invisible line, where opinions have been worded in a way that looks factual, and community members have decided not to post because they do not want to be involved in a flame war, and they do not want to be made to feel unintelligent.



Put simply, the gentle caution is this:  play nice.
