Come on everyone! We have to fight (bad word, strive maybe?) to keep this list on the saner side! Lets at least ACT decent. This list used to be great, whenever someone wasn't trying to force their opinion on someone else.

When there are discussions on this list and you don't agree with that person's opinion, DON'T settle for personal attacks!!! I mean come on, put yourself in that person's place. Would YOU want to be attacked for YOUR belief? I didn't think so. So why attack that same person?? Trying to alienate one another doesn't do anything for the both of you. No one is going to change their opinion just because someone slanders someone else, or because an opinion on a topic keeps being brought up! I believe it's ok to voice your opinion, so why not let others voice theirs?

Try to accept everyone around you and not start fights. Look around you. As Agie said: "don't you all realize WE make the list? " Without these same people around you, able to share opinions and not fight, there is NO list! Why start fights and cause people to leave? What have you accomplished? Nothing! I am positive ALL of you (me included) have made a friend or 2, why not give yourselves a chance to make more, instead of driving so many people away and fighting with others?

This list has survived so much. Let's not give in to the past. Try to act mature and accept the veiws around you. I mean think about it. If everyone had the exact same opinion as yourself, where would that leave you? I mean really think about it. This list would be boring wouldn't it? Someone would post something, and the whole list would agree?? So why not share opinions peacefully, take time to think about what others have to say! Show some respect for everyone around you, and yourself. We can't just let this list go. I refuse, and I'm hoping most of you agree.

I know I just said common sense things that people should already know, but I think we all needed to be reminded of this. EVERYONE, myself included, has done what others are doing at one point or another. On and off the list. Thank you everyone for at least taking the time to read. To everyone leaving or thinking about leaving, if you feel that you must, then let me just say this. It's been great with you all on the list. I may not have talked with each of you through e-mail personally, but it's been great through the list. It was fun reading what you all had to say and I hope to talk with you all again at one point. (hopes this made it to the list)

PEOPLE WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU????????????????????? Is this all true what I'm reading ? No way. There are/were so many great people on the list, unfortunately they want to leave/they left... Come on Scott - (can I say we all? - made it through - election, "RobTIsSoSmooth" or something, some jerk advertising his pathetic disguisting (sp?) website, people bashing Creed... , many more and even BETH ! And why now one person's bad behaviour should change that? I know everyone is sick and tired od this, so why do we need to argue...

Please, don't you all realize WE make the list? Let's try to act like decent people and try to build a FRIENDS LIST again... We can't let it go jus like that...
