Thank GB for keeping this a good place to visit

Like the title says Thank You!!  I frequent another outdoor website I will not name that has gotten out of control lately, with childish name calling, racial slurs and other things I don't want my 10 year old son reading. Now I am no angel, but you have to draw the line somewhere and stand up for your values and set a good example for the young ones. This site does exactly that and I appreciate Greybeard keeping things in control and keeping this a place I like to come to. Again Thank You to GB and the members here.

To be honest, a forum that excludes slur, obscenity, and excess is a rare thing.  I learned long ago that an individual who will back his words, chooses them carefully.  At one time I was learning to become an Infantry Army Sgt. and strove to demand respect with my colorful Language.  When I EARNED those stripes. it was due to the fact that every man who followed me armed into the night knew that boast and brag had been burnt out of me.  This forum and its control of what is allowable and polite is as much as I can ask and far more than I expected.

If I am going to offfend some one I can do it in plain language and I will apoligise fully and completely if I am wrong in doing so.

Thank you GBO
