"I think the BS thread should be on a different page. The BS detracts mightily from the potential for the forum to return to its former level of scholarship. The BS, especially the gynecology threads cheapen and drive away folks who are offended. I realize th emonopolizers want to keep Mudcat the way they have created it by monopolizing with thousands of crappy posts but I want it changed.

And clones, stop erasing threads like this because you want the mudcat your way.   

Max change the BS to a different page.

Max, is there any way I can filter out people who have no sense of humour?

Is there any way I can filter out people who want Mudcat to be run *their* way?

Is there any way I can filter out people who go running to teacher to tell tales on posters they don't like?

Is there any way I can filter out people who read every single thread every day, then write and complain that they don't like this thread or that thread?

Is there any way I can filter out people who seem unable to understand that you don't have to read *anything* in any thread at all, let alone the BS section itself?

Is there any way I can filter out people who don't understand that Mudcat is not about scholarship alone, but that it's a living, thriving community of people who love music and who love much more in life too?

And finally, is there any way I can filter out pratty people who choose to send me a PM telling me to go away because I don't contribute to the music section and they don't like what I write...especially when those people are called.....'harpgirl'?
