**POSITIVE/NEGATIVE NOTICE**

I am tired of seeing complaints of 'positivity' or 'negativity' creep into every thread. It's fine, and actually necessary, to have differing points of views in this forum. And I'm tired of the complaints that one side or the other is 'more maligned.' I'm not sure about my fellow moderators, but I am going to start instant pointing anyone who includes any such complaints into their posts in this forum. Disagree all you want, but leave the character and quality of other posters out of it. If you see a thread started that seems 'overly optimistic' to you, then maybe leave it alone if you can't post without commenting on how posters seem 'unrealistic' in their expectations. And if you see a thread started that seems 'overly negative' to your perspective, maybe leave it alone to allow posters a chance to critique what they see as weaknesses. If you don't like a thread, there is absolutely no obligation for you to post in it if you can't do so respectfully. If you see a post that you feel is truly problematic, and not just disagreeing with you, report it. If you don't know how to report a post, PM me.
