Hello, rec boats


Tomorrow is the one-month anniversary of Boatingforum.


Thanks to many of the rec.boats crew who have contributed something
there.


In the first 30 days we have had 320 posts to 90 different threads,
and the vast majority are boating related in nature. There are now 28
"members", and typically 10-20 guest visitors every day.


While the moderator function allows posts to be deleted that are
blatant trolls or personal attacks, in the first 30 days there hasn't
been a single post removed from the board. People are behaving like
gentlemen, (and there are some ladies as well), so there's no WWF
atmosphere. Not much need for a referee; and what a pleasant surprise
that has been. :-)


So, for the vast crowd (both of you) possibly wondering how this
experiment with a lightly moderated forum organized by topic is
progressing; satisfactory so far- but still in the startup stages.


Best wishes to one and all.....


With just one post, you have established yourself here as a spammer
and a troll. Nice work. Please go back to your self-imposed exile.- Hide quoted text -

Don't insult Chuck, just put him on your block list like you
supposedly do to me....
