Full Moon???
Jan, Tony, DK....
Like the cicadas, we seem to go through these periodic cycles where some simple issue/statement/forum topic takes on a life of its own and turns ugly. The admins have the duty and the right to intervene when they feel things are getting out of control or too un-civil. It's never an easy call and will always end up ticking off someone, but, we'll get over it and move past it.
TOTV is a wonderful resource and meeting place. For old timers, newbies, and wannabes it is a tremendous source of information. It is a great way to meet people in your new hometown before you ever get here. And, great people they are. We live in a beautiful, wonderful community. We have much to be thankful for in TV and TOTV. Think before you post and sometimes think again before you decide whether a topic is even worth posting a negative reply. Often times it's better just to let it slide and remain silent.
To our admins, thank you so much for this wonderful site and all the work and soul you invest in it. Like the angst with the new version (which has now died down) these flareups will come and go. Please know that the vast majority of forum members really enjoy this site and appreciate your efforts.
