I'm not saying everything is bad.

There is a lot of good info, and we've had some good fun and well mannered debates.

However, occasionally it goes haywire and all hell breaks loose.

It has been mentioned many times about keeping certain stuff off the forum, and I'm guilty of going off on one more than most, but if there is no forum to kick off in, then any problems are contained in a non-public place.

Don't get me wrong, I love the DD forum, but it gives me headaches as well.

I don't see how there is a problem with the 'useful' stuff crossing over into other areas of the board, and things like the riders diaries can go on the desmo due website which Phillc built for the very purpose (amongst other purposes).

I'm not saying that this should all happen, but it may be an option to stop people falling out or getting upset. The last thing we want is for the series to self destruct. Soon you'll have MT members not wanting to get involved coz of all the bitching, and then there'll be no point in having a DD forum anyway!

Saying that people just need to control themselves just isn't realistic - unfortunately, but I'm sure we'd all cope somehow!!
