When posting (a response) or reading (a response to your post), please remember to be mindful in a forum of written responses; the context and meaning can be lost or misconstrued.

Specifically, tone is not something that translates through words.

Also, some people know each other in the Real World; this means they can have an understanding between the lines without detailed explanations, which will be lost on those not in the know.

The users of the forum tend to be adults, administrators are not going to police every post of those that forget that, and the fact that other people may disagree with their point of view.

So make your choice,
- are you here to show all you know all, and can't learn any more?
- are you here to add no value, and just get your post count up?
- are you here to stir the pot, and give me a headache?
- are you here to share your knowledge, and learn some more? OR
- are you here to soak up some Alfisti passion and knowledge?

Only those aspiring to be in the last 2 groups display the Alfisti culture desired on the forum.
