    Well, it was nice while it lasted. Yesterday was tense and heated, but all in all I think it went a lot better than I expected. We really appreciate how relatively restrained most of the discussions were.

    Today seems to be a different story, though. Too many of these discussions are getting completely out of hand. The rules against insults, racial slurs, and flamebaiting are still in effect, but too many people are crossing the line. Whereas on Sunday, people were doing an unexpectedly good job of still staying within the boundaries, the threads today are inundated with personal attacks and insults. We're going to be calling every one of them we see, and we won't have time to get into lengthy discussions about it. Consider this a general thread warning for every thread. Any post that crosses the line today will probably result in an immediate thread-ban, and possible infractions. People NEED TO KEEP THE RULES IN MIND WHEN THEY POST - we don't want to delete anything, and we don't want to limit the discussions, but we still have to enforce the basic rules of the forum.

    Thanks, everyone. We want to leave as much latitude as possible for the discussions to follow their natural course, but it's a constantly evolving situation, so we're just trying to adapt as it evolves. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

    Glad the Z forum was created. It's become more of a racism issue than a discussion about the case.

    Good show
