Being a good poker player shouldn't excuse you from being shitty to people, but it certainly makes it more tolerable in a trade off kind of way. Ldo learning poker is 20x more important than people being nice in this environment.

I'd imagine this thread exists because new members have been complaining to admins etc, and been put off. Traffic is obviously a concern, but so is is quality - so this presents quite a dilemma for the running of FTR.

Edit: just saw Bikes' semi explanation. Why not just be open about what you actually mean for those of us who don't tune in regularly for the bitchy drama side of things.

Do I really need to go find the playground post?
