    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    Yes but frankly, I think everyone being armed with the ignore feature is all you really need. If it bothers people that much, an individual using the ignore feature is essentially issuing a personal ban.

    But you know what? Most sites have moderation, so whatever... I dont' like it but so be it.

    Calmer? Those colors hurt your eyes less? I think you must see in a different part of the spectrum than I do.

    Grey isn't calmer than white or light blue? Methinks I am not the pod-person...

    don't listen to him damo, after you updated the buttons this looks pretty slick. I like it a lot. Though maybe it would be cool to have alternating colors (i.e. dark gray light gray) throughout the thread.. but it's still really good right now.

    I'm hoping it translates over when I upgrade. The newest release has come out and I'm going to update the whole site sometime this weekend...
