If you guys would stop feeding the trolls, then they would have nothing to feed off of and they would go find some greener pastures. I'm getting really tired of the silly arguments every where I go and don't want to see that stuff flaring up here.

Admins: you pay the bills here, so put your foot down. :?

If you ask me, this sounds an awful lot like one of those 2 or 3 troublemakers that's been harassing the MSN group all the time. Rockets42 is awfully similar to Robomann68, isn't it? This guys got nothing better to do so he's back up to their same tired old tricks once more. I don't know why David wants to let him stay. I wanted to boot him off as soon as he started in with the lame-o excuses for changing the contest. If history repeats itself then ignoring him will just make him try harder to get attention. Mark my words.

Look, I sincerely apologise if I have offended anyone. All I asked was for a clarification of the rules, that was all. Yes some of my coments were inappropriate, but only as a reaction to some of the answers I received.

Okay then. Just remember that the WRA2 is paying the bills here and maintaining the contests and prizes and they can make any rule they want. We're all just guests in their 'house', so let's act like it.

If a sausage company was sponsoring the contest they could say you had to loft a sausage along if you want to compete. If you don't want to go along with that then don't enter, and don't clutter the place with debates over the merits of sausages versus bologna.

If I see anyone stirring the pot, I will restrict your access. that goes for all.

As one of the few girls in this sport, I get a lot of "you're too dumb" and "don't know the difference between blah and blah". Most people seemed reasonable on this forum, that's why I joined in the first place. But when I asked a simple question and got more of the same, I reacted.

Relax. We're not going to put up with trolls starting flamewars.

Yes I am a guest, I tried to join the WRA2 quite a few months ago but received a very unpleasant email. Look I don't want to play any games, if this is an exclusive forum that's fine, it was advertised on the main site as for everyone, but people haven't really been nice to me here.

If you want me to leave just say so, restricting access without an explanation is not very friendly. I have made a number of comments that in retrospect may have been negative, but discussions often have differing options, and when you ban those people who may have a different opinion, you end up with a very one sided conversation.
