Members, I will use this closed thread to make a point, as all of you who have written on it should see an alert.
There have been alerts sent in via support.
Weekends are for chat, but there is never, and I really mean
never, any excuse for flaming, cyber bullying, insulting behaviour towards other posters.
Some have been suspended for this sort of behaviour in the past, but as useful contributors to HotCopper, have been allowed to continue posting with guarantees from them not to repeat, but I can see its' still happening.
Regardless of your input, if you can't adhere to these guidelines and anti-bullying in general, you will not be allowed to continue as a member of HotCopper, no matter how good your information is.
Change the way you relate to other people, or put them on ignore, but don't bring it here.
If this twitter war is alive and well, let them play there, but don't bring it back here please.
It is very saddening to see petty arguments ruin an otherwise good thread, so half a dozen can spoil things for the rest. Remember for everyone posting there are dozens reading quietly, and shaking their head at the behaviour.
Have fun, post music and sensible chat and stock discussion and be friendly, and if you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all. It is that simple. You can learn from many of the posters, most have been hauled through burning coals to learn their methods, and there is wisdom among the nonsense.
So basically, cut out the nonsense, or HotCopper will have to cut you out.
