should we not think about allowing a little leeway here and there during a heated debate as long as members aren't insulting eachother?
TBF TiBB gives quite a bit more leeway than a lot of forums already.

But yeah, I've spoken before of a forum (similar size to this one) that I was a member of as a teenager. It had ONE moderator (the admin) and he was paid staff, 9 - 5 Monday - Friday. So all evening every day, and all weekend, the place was completely unmoderated.

And I seriously LOVED that forum . It was the Wild West, a total free-for-all, and forged some pretty meek and mild members into the best keyboard warriors I've had the pleasure to encounter. Simpler times. Sigh.
