Now that Tulsan is back to posting regularly, his amigos including Plaino, dfwsooner, and others seem empowered to return to their uncivil ways. A quick glance at the game thread and their use of moron, dumba**, and other insults are flying from the sanctuary of their keyboards again. When Tulsan's influence was on hiatus, this board - and the noted regulars - developed and maintained a measured degree of civility.
Tulsan can be a pretty good poster when he doesn't allow his ego to reduce this forum to ashes. It's interesting how he seemingly inspires "others" to hurl verbal garbage left and right. If I'm being unfair ST, you have my apology but, the noted others have returned to their unfortunate ways only since you came back. At the very least, the timing of their insults upon your return is very coincidental and they appear to be greatly tarnishing your renewed presence.
Looks like this board is headed back to its trashier days. Let the abuse begin from those who should know better. Or, will we now return to the "ignore" orgies of the past? Cliques, anyone? Either way, the promising civil and inviting recent past and now present seems endangered.
Let's see what the mods have in store for the bullies and the bullied.
Just my non-professional observation.
