New sheriff in town. Not going to put up with negativity or nastiness.
Helpfulness and kindness will rule here as that
is what these lists are all about.
A couple peeps have been temp banned and more will be
if this continues. Let's be informative and not negative.....
Er ok, but where does the line go ?!
Some sarchasm is part of discussions otherwise you'll kill
this list off. Humour is part of life, for me a large part.

Just who do you think would volunteer to be the butt of sarcasm? Would you use
sarcasm with a friend or SO? I don’t think so. Sarcasm has no place on this
list and it serves NO useful purpose. You can be funny without resorting to
ridicule or wounding others.
