Only a high school student, I was only a high school student once. I did some things that people probably did not agree with. Once I was told to stop, I stopped. Just because one is only a high school student it doesn't give them a blank check to act the way that many have on this forum and have caused so many problems. That's like saying the drunk driver that killed the passengers in another car should be allowed to walk free because he was "drunk" and therefore should not be held accountable for his actions. Although this may seem an extreme comparison to you, it should hit the point home. At some point high school students (and all of us) are accountable for our behavior and following the rules that are previously established. Have fun, but don't whack at the tree as if there were no consequences. Language is not a big deal to some; we all know the words, what they mean and how they are to be used. Most people know that there is a time and a place for those words and I believe that this is neither the time nor the place. I am certain most will agree with me on this. Yes, it is spring time. The birds are flying, trees are getting green and not much wrestling is taking place. Does that mean the forum should just stop all together? No, but one can only take so much of Manhattan this, and Nigel that. Things were escalating to a point of delinquency and disregard for what the forum was intended to be. And quite frankly, it was becoming an embarrassment. Maybe my actions of moving some topics were a little drastic but the results were very well appreciated. And I did not ban Jhris. I didn't even call for his banning, although he went too far. I left that to someone else to do and many will agree that it was a necessary step. How about we all try to have some fun with keeping in mind that we in some way or another are brothers of a family? In the end we are all (mostly) wrestlers who should support each other and carry each others banners. The chest thumping is over. The state champions have been congratulated (congratulations). Move on get over it. Have fun but be responsible.

P.S. Words like **** and *** and a$$ need to stop. Most of the people that read the forum are not stupid and know what those words are. I said most people, there are a few who don't get it but we call them special.
