In order to preserve the character of this forum (of being safe, legal, fun and polite) I am taking some liberties (responsibilities) in editing.
In the past, the character of the forum has been well maintained by those participating. A need has arisen for some corrections to be taken.
I will in the future take this responsibility in a more timely fashion if it is needed at all, up until now it has not been.
DD & I have worked for 2-1/2 years at fostering an open forum with free-flowing discussion and the encouragement of the development of skills and knowledge in the use of cannons and mortars. A high level of politeness and respect is necessary for that. To that end you will find where I have ripped out remarks, passages and/or posts.
The following remarks will be left in explanation.
[argumentative/inflammatory remark(s) deleted by CW/DD]
This means: dont argue - present an alternative view in a more polite fashion; dont take cheap shots at others character. This includes use of language.
[off-topic remark deleted by CW/DD]
Im very tolerant about off topic, until it gets out of the scope of this forum - specifically such firearms/devices that regulated BATF. References to such devices are necessary and helpful in comparison and explanation of pre-1899 mortars and cannons and are welcome.
[SPELLING correct by CW/DD]
You will NEVER see this used. Youre on your own, do your own spell check.
Continued postings of disparaging remarks will result in actions by Graybeard - [take a look at his rules of the board: ] http://www.graybeardoutdoors.com/gbo/gbo-tos.php .
Should you disagree with my editing the proper place for you to respond is by PM.
This is Graybeards board. We are ALL guests (or sponsors) here. Need I say more? I will say more. Thanks to all of you who have made this forum what it is!
Respectfully,
CW
