We are reopening the Speak Easy with one minor change. You will no longer be able to quote posts. If you want to respond to what someone wrote, you are going to have to formulate a grammatically correct response. Some of our members decided that it was OK to quote the previous 15 quotes and add a one line response that added nothing to the conversation. That is not going to happen any more. The Speak Easy is for thoughtful debate, and if you can't be thoughtful, don't even bother. Your post will disappear. And before you demand an explanation, forget it. It is what it is. As long as you further the debate in a thoughtful and considerate manner, your post will remain. If you cannot, your post will be removed. If there are any questions, PM me.

How is it, then, that in this Speak Easy thread posts after April 7th are using the "quote post" option?

JohnWho it is because that topic started out in General Chat I believe, then was moved to The SpeakEasy later on when it got weird. lol

Well, I suppose that makes sense, sort of.

Actually, John Who, Groovicus is Serious, we all know that and have adapted our Postings accordingly.
That is the way it should be, Mate.

He does Rule this Section.

I know.

So far the new proceedures seem to be working, which is a good thing.

I really was just bringing this to someone's attention in case there was a problem.

A thread being moved here makes perfect sense.
