I don't get to read every message posted on this board, but I do read some of them and there seems to be a lot of needless bickering going on.

I find it incredible that people have such a hard time just ignoring posts that they have learned from experience they don't want to read! How many of you subscribe to a magazine, any magazine? What do you do when the next page has an advertisement or an article that you don't want to read? You simply flip the page. You don't fire off a nasty letter to the editor or to the advertiser complaining about that page. You just ignore it. That is what you should do here as well.

People come here for different reasons. Some people look only for information on Las Vegas chips, some are looking for chips from anywhere. Some just want information, some are looking for info on where to buy, some are looking for buyers and some are looking for sellers. My point here is that each and every person that uses this board has their own reason for coming here. That is what makes a board like this work, many different interests that all fall under the more broad category of Casino Chips.

That doesn't mean that anything goes. There must be guidelines in place, but they should be broad guidelines that keep people on the general track of what the board is about, Casino Chips in this instance. You don't want someone coming here selling used cars or offering medical advice, but you also have to remember that we are all human beings, and when we participate in a forum such as this, we get to know each other and on occasion, off topic things will be shared. How do you legislate something like that out? You don't! That is what makes this kind of thing work.

If someone on the board is doing something that you don't like, try and ignore it. If you can't ignore it, take a few minutes and go to their house and beat them up. If your neighbor's dog is pooping in your yard, take a poop in their yard. BUT, you wouldn't walk up and down the street pooping in your neighbor's yard for the whole world to see, you would do it PRIVATELY or visit their home and poop in their living room. The same thing applies in this neighborhood.
