glad to hear that a bbforum is near ...  cant wait, and totally understand
about themes. i find myself unable to use an ugly forum lol even though the
information is exactly the same.

Ignoring is hard especially when messages come to your work or personal
inbox. i think thats where the failure to keep level heads comes about. i
have been a victim myself when my phone beeps and i see a lug message ...
upon opening it there was an insult from poster, i literally flipped out and
to take a cigarette break from work.
