"FR has been called the "Dodge City of the Internet", but I see no need to keep about 95% of the flaming, bad language and plain old abuse that crops up from time to time."

Well, we could get software like what AOL uses for some forums...but then we'd be the "AOL of the Internet," which is why Jim got FR started in the first place.

Personally, I'd resist going full circle, but then, I'm not the boss.

Or a Moderator.

Are there confidentiality agreements in place to protect anonymity or is it a "we trust you" kinda thing....?

Hey...thanks for searching....appreciate it.

I did a google search but didn't find it in the first 20 links. Guess I have to work on my parameters/search techniques.
