Guilty as charged! Take me away.

Now we are at San Antonio, but since I live at on post housing it is technically Fort Sam Houston. Oklahoma you say? Ever heard of Calvin? It is half way between Ada and McAlister and that is where I grew up, although I should note that I was born in Oklahoma City. I know Wichata Falls even though it has been a long time since I have been back there I used to frequent it.

Never heard of Calvin. I was born & raised in Lawton, which is why I'm familiar with the Wichita Falls area. Even lived in Burkburnett for a couple of years. I'm more familiar with the SW Oklahoma area. Never made it over to McAlister, and I've passed through Tulsa a few times. I spent 16 weeks in San Antonio; 6 at Lackland AFB for basic training, and believe it or not, even though I was in the Air Force, I had to go to Ft. Sam Houston for 10 weeks because the Air Force at the time didn't have a school for what I did, which was mental health clinic technician. Nice area. I wished I could have spent more time there.

Maybe I'm just not reading the right threads, but I haven't noticed anything getting out of hand. Although that could be because I'm very hard to offend

Arguement and criticism can both be good things, as long as no one takes things the wrong way, or becomes offended.

Think about all the possible ways a statement could be intended, and then take the least offensive interpretation as the intended result.

We as a people do not/ can not see the body language of the others so sometimes things ment in jest will be screwed up and taken the wrong way, I have found that for the most part this forum is very helpfull and inforative, yes we can step on toe's but also remember even eye to eye we do I think you have given a lot to this forum and game!

This is why we need good emotion icons.

Just need to add my two cents.

I've seen flame wars, worse than any here, in the past I participated, and even start a few. But flame wars and the such just end up dying out. Many of us like friend have fights, heck I once knock out a guy at college and we went on to become best friends, fights happen, what is important is to just let fights end, feelings get hurt when fights drag on.

Just my two 1/2 cents
