First posted rule when you go into these message boards:

While debating and discussion is fine, we will not tolerate rudeness, insulting posts, personal attacks or purposeless inflammatory posts. Our decision is final in these matters.

While I don't go into "off-topic" as much as the other categories here, when I do I often see "rudeness, insulting posts, personal attacks and purposeless inflammatory posts" that can be done in private or elsewhere IMO.

The political brow beating is tiresome and not something that should be the front runner every day in a lakes discussion forum. I realize all message boards ultimately decompose down to this type of posting but for some reason I thought it was less likely on boards that were about recreational activities and the beauty of being on or near a lake...my mistake.
