There seem to be some bad feelings bubbling to the surface recently that will probably continue as the US election season progresses.

I would like to remind everyone that when you read something you think violates the forum rules or is just way over the line, it's important that you click the Report button under the post. You can leave the reason blank, just click OK.

All that does is send me an instant email so I can jump on the computer and have a look at it. If 3 people report the same thread, I know it's even higher priority.

This can give me a big edge in "nipping arguments in the bud" as I have a direct link to where the flame-war started, and I can scan back to see what led up to the outbreak of hostilities...

Clicking Report doesn't go on anyone's personal record - it's just a community flagging mechanism, so don't be shy to use it (but don't use it for things that are reasonable, but you simply disagree with!!)

Thanks
Skye

PS: Feel free to use the "Live Chat Page" if you want to have a war of words, maybe that would be a good pressure release valve grinning smiley

Skye, I hope that our Prime Minister (Neville Chamberlain II) joins this group too (I could care less what political party he represents).

I hear that there are some bad feelings festering North of the 49th too and I'd love to have a Live Chat with Little Stevie (it's a Wonder that I'm still the Prime Minister), without breaking the forum rules (kind of like enjoying Parliamentary Privilege).

Intermittent Explosive Disorder Affects up to 16 Million Americans

To be diagnosed with IED, an individual must have had three episodes of impulsive aggressiveness "grossly out of proportion to any precipitating psychosocial stressor," at any time in their life, according to the standard psychiatric diagnostic manual.

What type of fighting are we talking about?

It's always good to keep your head on a swivel when you get into a vicious cockfight!!!

Is there a report button on the iPhone app. Another spammer is selling metal detectors. I wanted to report it but could not figure out how.
