If you don't want to read it, then don't open it
Often, I get the following argument from people who want more liberal guidelines on the board.
"If you don't want to read about something, then simply don't open that topic."
* I agree. It's really not that difficult. Not everything is going to interest you because the board reflects a variety of people.
What if you are not interested in reading jokes, prayer requests, discussions about personal problems and so on? Yet, the first 3 pages of the GCC section are filled with them.
* This a quilting board. Sure, other things happen in people's lives but to scroll or not to scroll is a choice, as is to post or not to post or to respond or not to respond.
It is early and maybe the coffee hasn't kicked in yet but I'm taking responsibility for the *items in this post because they are my response to admin's post. Maybe I should have posted in color? I didn't want to come off as flippant but tried to keep subjective.
I apologize if I have offended anyone but would like to know if I really have... :oops:
