Shemp, It's good to see you back, but during the time you've been away there has been a new rule instituted here at Fairfield Life, one that in my opinion was needed, and which has fixed a lot of what had "gone wrong" with FFL.
Everyone is limited to five posts a day. Five. Counted from midnight Fairfield Time to midnight the next day. On your first day back you made 12 posts during that period for April 12th. This is your second post of the day for April 13th. You have three more left, and after that Rick and the other moderators have the right to "cut you off" and swith you to moderated status, so that nothing you post makes it to the list without their approval. It's a Good Thing, really. In the time since this rule has been in place, the tone of Fairfield Life has improved greatly. People are taking more time to "think through" what they have to say, and to *not* say things that really don't need saying. There are very few barbs and insults hurled by children who just won't grow up, and when they are, those of us who were damned tired of the children only have to hit 'Next' a maximum of five times per child. I *like* the new system, because it makes me value my words more, and use them more circumspectly. I don't waste my time responding to people who really don't deserve that time. And I think a lot of people here feel the same way. A number of posters who had been driven away from what Fairfield Life had become have come back, and are contributing again. I think that's a Good Thing. I'm spending one of my five posts today to try to explain this to you, hoping that you really missed the new rule and weren't aware of it. Welcome back. I think it'll be good to read the things you have to say, especially when, like everyone else, you have become comfortable with the fact that you can only say them five times a day. --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], "shempmcgurk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > This is the best take on the whole l'Affaire Imus that I've > seen or heard so far.
