Relational Conflict

[fmofmpls]

I would like to remind certain members that we will not tolerate any direct, or indirect relational conflict to be played out publicly here at the forum. I know everyone is not going to like everyone all of the time, or even some of the time, BUT .. please refrain from inflammatory comments which only result in disrupting the entire community. TAKE IT SOMEWHERE ELSE! 

This is your only warning. If this warning goes unnoticed, the mods will remove you from the forum. You will receive your dishonorable discharge papers, and your life will be ruined.

Respectfully, Terry.
The General of the UMA.

 Terry, does this include the playfull comments me and Scatter sometimes throw each others way.  We don't do this often, and we both do it in humor ( only toward each other).  Nothing bad.

[Toy Ranch]

I can answer that one.  Absolutely not.  You guys are welcome to joke around with each other.  There are a few folks here who have some longstanding bitterness toward each other that has resulted in locked threads, deleted posts, warnings, etc.  Debate, even heated at times is fine.  Following perceived "enemies" around sniping at them, baiting them, and using the UMA as a battleground is not.

I appreciate what you guys do to keep this forum a place where we can get AWAY from the pettiness and lack of civility encountered so many other places on the net. Something about the combination of anonymity and a keyboard seems to bring out the worst in some folks.

Monsters have always been an ESCAPE from that stuff. Thanks for keeping it that way for us here!!

[Jscareshock]

Thank you again.  Keep it outside is the ebst way to handle it.

[Paul L]

I'm grateful for everyone's efforts to keep things civil, if not friendly. Monsters have never let me down, & I have slim to no one in my personal life to share this magical obsession with. I'm enjoying all of you very much.

[Fester]

Wow. Have I been totally oblivious here?
I have yet to notice anything truly rancorous in any of the threads.  In fact I find this one of the fiendliest-- er--friendliest places I have ever seen in the webbed wild world.

Thanks to all who have made this middle aged monster kid feel at home.
You all have done a very good job keeping this place so great.

Now, that is scary Fester is middle-aged? I have to give my support to the UMA it is a home from home where I can feel safe and I have found a lot of friendly members who bend over backwards to please (I see the Baron's ears pricking up at that thought). Keep it safe.

RIGHT-O, BR'ER MAURICE!
... Like, yourself, I, too, have bequeathed my olde ATHLETIC SUPPORTER, to the UMA; they're thrilled, to have it.
... They told me, that, it shall be made, into, either, a gigantic series, of Quonset-huts, or, a new, badly-needed UMA STADIUM, which can seat a HUNDRED-THOUSAND PEOPLE!
... No, don't thank me; Modesty forbids; CIVIC DUTY and all that rot;

... Like, yourself, I, too, have called home, from home, because it's such a lark, to see the Operator so confused;

... Like, yourself, I, too, have felt the UMA SAFE; why, I, even, looked, inside it. I was disappointed, of course, that there was not so much as a farthing, left, behind.
... However, upon learning, that TERRY had absconded, with all the MONEY, mere moments prior, I was bemused, by the thought, that, once, again, I was, out, of work.

... Like, yourself, I, too, have found lots and lots, of friendly Dis{sed}memberers, who, not, only, bend-over, backwards, to "please, please me, oh, yeah, like I please you", but, turn themselves inside-out, in order to show you their wares.
... They must be WARE-WOLVES!
... They live, in WARE-HOUSES, and enjoy, much, like, you and I, EVEN-STEVEN SOMMER'S MUMMY'S SOMERSAULTS, REEKING, OF SMELLING-SALTS, THAT SIZZLE, WITH SUMMER SAUSAGES AND ROCK-CANDY SWIZZLE-STICKS, FOLLOWED, BY LOUP-GAROU LOOP-DE-LOUS, PERFORMED BY CINDY LOU WHO AND LOU COSTELLO {WHO'S ON THIRD}!
... Ahhhh, would, that, we, all, could have such sublime moments, of Inner-Clarity!
... Hmmmm, did I type this out loud?!
... Why, Such madness should be outlawed... or, at the very least, MOTHER IN-LAWED!

... BROTHER JOHNNY SAID IT EBST! And as we all know, EBST is, not, only, the BEST way, to say it, it is, also, the the ONLY WAY, to say it!
... "EBST!" Why It makes this olde WEREWOLF happy, just, to be alive, and, nearly, functional... That is, why, "They" keep me, outside.
.......... Jscareshock: "Thank you again.  Keep it outside is the ebst way to handle it."
... YOU'RE MOST WELCOME JOHHNY! Good to see you posting, here!
EXANIMO EVERNOW,

My Dear Brother, DEPRESSED LARRY TALBOT,
... No, I have several other cyber-Identities; howe'er, none, by that particular nom de plume.
... Ken ye, o' someone, with the penchant, for Archaic Buffoonery, in logic, humour and style?
EXANIMO EVERNOW,

[depressedlarrytalbot]

Yep maybe. He used to post on Scarlet Street and I think Latarnia and the CHFB.  Haven't been there or seen of him for a while and I just thought ....

When you come into our house, be sure to wipe your feet at the door. You're welcome as our guest as long as you treat others with the same amount of respect and kindness that you require and deserve.

In our house there are women and children including some elderly folks. Please conduct yourself in an orderly fashion and please watch your language. Speak as you would before your own mother, daughter, or spouse. Some topics may be better served elsewhere. The UMA is a fun and safe place. And we will ensure that it stays that way too.

This house isn't a pub. It isn't a flop house. It isn't Facebook, MySpace, or Twitter. It's a community designed for public enjoyment and yet owned and support by private individuals. Don't enter this house with any sense of entitlement. Your stay here will be short lived otherwise.

Enjoy yourselves and feel at ease. But also be aware that in our house you will act in accordance with our rules, or you will be asked to leave.

Thanks for your continued support of the UMA! And God bless America!

Troops, you better listen to the General! He don't carry that gun in his avatar for nothin'! Hell, he once shot a man just for snorin'!

Or was that Billy the Kid?
