Re: Manners... A new rule...
Reminds me of an old bicycle site I'm on called the CABE. I restore old bikes and they had a thread called the Break Room. Unfortunately folks got into politics on it and it became quite personal and testy. They have since eliminated the thread and restored civility to the web site. I'm at a loss as to why discussing our passions could result in the same problem we had on the CABE? Being a jerk is not cool no matter what the subject is. Seems like manner these days is in short supply.......

Re: Manners... A new rule...
Hey Ryan, and the members of the Barn - you all do a great Service to us, especially newbies to the Barn forum like myself. I just checked out HAMB reseaching something out, and could not believe it. 75 % of replies are attacking others, and mostly have nothing to do with, or very little to do with the original Poster's questions.
Your patience is really appreciated, having answered some questions many, many times in the past, while us newbies learn how to search the Barn. So Thanks. |

Ryan, THANKS for your good work. I am reminded of what my Mother taught me. "If you can't say something nice, say nothing at all"...

Re: Manners... A new rule...
This forum is the most helpful and civil one I have seen on the internet. I am on Facebook often, and see people attacked daily even for seemingly innocuous comments. I really appreciate good give and take without profanity! I may be a preacher's kid and grandson of a preacher, but I find most of today's discourse online and in the news to be uncouth! Thanks for Fordbarn!

Re: Manners... A new rule...
Ryan, YOU continue to do a 'great' job! It is not forgotten that YOU administer this wonderful site as a favor and courtesy extended to the rest of us – taking the time from your personal affairs too do so. It is the efforts by people like YOU that move us back toward the ‘Kinder and Gentler’ nation that we have been and have been called to be. THANK YOU RYAN!

Re: Manners... A new rule...
I got roasted on the old site in 2015 when I asked about a problem I was having with the F1 l had been driving a month or two.
I still have not solved the problem or even improved on it after 20,000 miles but I found out that I was a poor driver and that Fords were poor cars and that I was/am kinda stupid. I also figured out that some were posting answers without reading the post they were answering. So I didn’t post again untill this month. I don’t even remember my user name. |

Re: Manners... A new rule...
Ever since I got on this site I look at all the good that is out there. I have received more help on various sites than I have in person. No matter the response I have to keep a positive attitude as there is always more help than not. Thanks for all that you do. And this is not trying to butter any one up.I have belonged to a lot of car sites.

Re: Manners... A new rule...
Ryan, I'm new here and read this thread a couple days back. This morning something hit me that is one of my favorite lessons in life. It's perfectly summed in a quote from Mark Twain:
"It ain't what you know for certain that gets ya in trouble. It's what ya know for certain that just ain't so!" I'm enjoying the forum immensely and I hope this great quote brings a little humor into all this. I laugh every time I think of Mr. Twain's (Sam Clemen's) observation! |
