My hats off for your hard work on designing a very thought out site, thank you.
It is my experience that Bulletin Boards, for the most part, function merely as showcases for the witty and articulate. Most evolve into self-serving pissing match spectacles between contenders, “and in this corner” much to the amusement and delight of its lurking audience, complete with occasional heckler and “yea, Todd is right” 2 cent-ers.
Because not all of us are gifted one-liners, quick on our feet, or trained in the way of sit-com writers, I applaud Lector’s idea of safe respect areas.
Despite themselves, BBs occasionally serve to cause us to think, and maybe, just maybe learn something new.
and that is my self-serving 2 cents.
