All forums have their regulars, that's just the nature of them.
When a bunch of like minded people get together an association will form, it's natural. I try and post helpfully if I can, if I can't, I'll give a best guess and stand corrected.
For all the 'non-regular' regulars, if you were more regular there would be more diversity.
If you've learned something from the site, then you should post it back if a 'regular' can't get there in time and a similar question is asked.
As for the language thing, well, I can understand it in rants and raves and the lounge, I have a room full of guys who use 'the eff' as a form of punctuation and I tend to myself. You should have heard me today!
Personal attacks are unnecessary and uncalled for, however, some of the stuff said in the lounge is between 'freinds' - the association I mentioned earlier. It's just banter. Even so we must remember where we are.
All members have a responsabilty to the site.
How many members have we had since the last post here?

Are the 'regulars' scaring them away?
This is one of the freindliest forums I have ever encountered 8)
