Appreciate you weighing in Ken.

Just one more opinion, but personally I don't think anything should be deleted. Giving out warnings and bans is ok, but deleting posts or parts of posts generally makes a thread really hard to follow and drives users away from a site.

Understand the concern about threads need to stay contiguous for readability, so when necessary I will try to leave a "this post deleted because it wasn't constructive" message.

I also believe that there should be some kind of a scummunity type of forum where those members who want to sit around and insult each other all day can do that without threat of being banned.

No on scummy forum for insulting each other. I just think that kind of culture bleeds into other parts of the site. To borrown an analogy from another sport, I'd rather folks "play the ball and the not the person."

Yes on members are allowed to jest with one another in a friendly way. There's certainly some squishy gray area between the two and some posts will have to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

At the end of the day, my goal is to encourage a friendly community oriented around climbing. If at any point you think I'm being heavy-handed, just drop me a PM--I'm more than happy to rethink how I handled a situation. Doesn't mean I'll always agree with you, but I will certainly re-think it and generally try to bounce it off a few other staff members for their input--I don't mind coming back and saying I made a mistake.
