I'm a bit disapointed in the forum..  Recently, we saw a thread degenerate into personal attacks.  I think it's especially bad since the inital flaming came from a moderator.  Moderators are obviously allowed to have an opinion but should show more restraint than the rest of us common mortals when it comes to posting.  Who's going to moderate the moderators??  

I'm not trying to take sides here but I think situations like this are bad for group integrity.  The last thing we need is to divide the group into clans or cliques..

If it becomes regular, this kind of behaviour is going to drive people away.  Maybe there were personal issues in the background that amplified the situation here but I don't know nor do I want to know.  If you have a personal beef with someone, keep it private ..  Or post it on RGP - that's what it's there for anyway

Have a good week gentlemen (and ladies!)

moderating the moderators well good question, as we are just regular guys who are learning every day on this one. if somone has some ideas let us know, also good to bring it up at a meeting in person and discuss it get more done and stuff figured out as a group. but for personal attacks i agree should be done privately. sometimes weak moments come around and our passions get the best of all of us. after the POST button is pressed it is hard to take it back. hopefully in the future we can stay on topic without too much fragmented personal feelings in the way. with that said, anything personal please keep it personal. I do care about this group and enjoy all the good things about it. lets try to make it work this involves everyones cooperation.

Thank you

I think some of the southern ontario guys like me, monkeybug and diamond dave should be mods so we can monitor your northern ottawa/montrealers.
