We're here to have fun, so we'll keep it simple.
1) I ask that you keep the well known four letter words to a minimum, employing them only when ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY to make your point.
2) I would expect we will all treat each other with respect. Disagreements are OK and expected - if we all agreed, there would be no reason to discuss anything. But, we can disagree without name calling (which seems to be the major reasons for the start of flame wars)
3) A corollary to (2) above is that a certain amount of "inter-service rivalry" is to be expected (even within the same service IE Infantry grunts vs Sig C pukes). This is similar to sibling rivalry - I can pick on my brother all day long but if someone else begins to pick on him - they got the both of us to reckon with. In other words - I love you but I still like pulling your chain occasionally
4) I don't expect we will be bothered by it too much but we do need to respect copyright laws. It is tempting to copy long posts from other sources, but a short quote, with a link, will keep us on safe ground. And there should be a reason for a cut and paste posting IE YOU need to make a point or say something other than just putting up someone else's words 'cause you think they are neat.
5) The PRIME DIRECTIVE -- enjoy the interaction and HAVE FUN
These are Jerry's rules, and they work anywhere. On with the discussions!

Sounds reasonable to me, Swampy; see you people around from time to time.

I want to remove my screen name muleskinner07 and hornet32j how do I do this ? If you settle on a name which can be entered in your "profile" then I can delete those you no longer want to use. Just let me know which ones you want deleted.

how do you put a picture on a post ? , I know how to do it on ebay and craigslist , don't know how in this forum . Go to the same place where you got the cartoon picture you are using (profile)and there is a place to link to, or upload, a picture. If you upload, just browse your computer to find the picture you want to upload, click on it and follow the instructions... Ooops I think I misunderstood - you want to upload a picture to a message not add an avitar to your profile. At the top of your page when you post a message is a couple of rows of icons. The tenth one in from the left in the second row is "Insert Image". Click on it and enter the URL for the image you want to insert.

Say, jerry, when you posted those rules, did you just make them up or copy them from the old place? I'm asking because you did it very soon after we started this forum, so, if you did make them up wholesale, you did a good job pretty quickly.
Just being curious.

I made them up after you started this forum. By then, I had been excluded from the old place and I don't remember the rules there, even if we had them....
