The mudslinging and calling out is going to end
« on: February 28, 2008, 05:44:07 pm »
Period.  We understand people get frustrated.  We understand it's helpful to have a place to vent those frustrations.  That's fine.  But this forum has gone to hell recently because it's turned into the damned monkey cage at the zoo.  People are going to stop with the constant ad-hom's.  There's going to be an end to threads devoted entirely to shit talking.

If you are upset about something and want clarification, that's fine.
If you're unsure if what happened in a round is ethical, that's fine.
What's not fine are personal attacks and threads/posts which simply state "School University Sucks" or "Don Donelson is a dickwad."

This is website can be a really great resource.  It helped me out a lot when I first got involved with mock trial and it's a valuable way to maintain contact with others in the AMTA community.  It's a valuable way to learn about what goes on behind the scenes.  It's a great way to discuss in court tactics and general trial strategy.

Let's all make a better effort to make this place a little bit better, ok?

OK!
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
