As I'm sure all of you know, there has been a lot of debate going on about War Stories and the direction it's headed.

Rest assured, there will be changes made to get this forum back on track. Some of you may or may not like those changes and may or may not like the direction that has been chosen for this forum. That's ok. You are all invited to stay, and play by the forthcoming rules if you don't feel like you can do that or show, by your actions that you can't, you will be removed.

From this point forward, I'm treating everyone to a fresh start although I won't be as lenient as normal. Those who can't conform or don't want to will be dealt with. If the nonsense is taken to other areas of the board, where it doesn't belong, those people will be dealt with.

Thanks.

War Stories used to be a very busy forum that was frequented by a large number of people. They came to read about kills and deaths posted from around the Tampa area. There wasn't a lot of drama and there wasn't an over abundance of shit talking.

The forum was interesting and well liked. It's not anymore. Many of the same people I spoke about above have stopped coming in here. If it taked slowing this forum down and reducing the activity to get it back on track, then so be it.

To start, since they have been a cause of so much drama in the recent past, no more call outs, or call out titles.

That may change, it may not...it was never our intention to have a forum full of call outs. Yes they did happen in the past, but because of the infrequency of them and the fact that most turned out to be fruitful posts that actually resulted in a race they were overlooked. That isn't the case now, nor has it been for some time.

Thanks.

War Stories has always had call outs in it, they were overlooked and 'allowed' because they were few and far between and actually resulted in races. As of late, the past year or so, that hasn't been the case. More and more we are seeing threads turn into 10 page shit fests.

If it takes removing all call outs for the time being to get back to where we should be, then so be it.
