<p>I'm somewhat new here; so, I've spent quite a lot of time reading older threads. I've found surprisingly little use of potentially offensive language. What has caused me a double take is a surprising amount of intolerance, competitiveness, rudeness, and outright arrogance. For a forum dedicated to a hobby, the number of these kinds of posts confounds me. Over the years, I've gotten to know quite a few model railroaders personally, and I've never found them anything but patient, kind, gentlemanly, and generous to a fault. You can see how many of the posts found here stand in marked contrast. Were I seeking to portray a positive image of model railroading for our young, I'd be far more concerned about checking attitudes at the door than policing language. But, again, that's just me.</p>Lynda
