I think we have a pretty good group of members. I initially wanted to cap membership at 100, but that crept up a bit to 130. Still a decent size with ample discussion. Now I'm considering upping the cap again, in order to ensure quality discussions. I just don't want it to get too big too quickly.
I want this forum to be a place where we can all intelligently discuss politics and policy, both domestic and International as well as economic and other issues. That doesn't mean we all have to share the same perspective, ideology or understanding. It does mean that we have to appreciate where the other member is coming from, even if we disagree with them.
For the most part dialogue, at least for me, has been a tremendous learning experience. The dialogue, thus far, has also been without a lot of rancor or profanity. I'd like to keep it that way. We are all adults and shouldn't have to abide by a lot of childish rules, nor should we have to be monitored like school children. As adults we know how we want to be treated and should govern ourselves accordingly.
Like I said, so far so good. This is just a reminder that there are no "rules" here per se, other than having respect for ourselves and for one another. If you have complaints or suggestions on how we can work to improve discussions around here, please let me know below (or privately).
That's all I have to say for now. Everyone have a wonderful week, and I look forward to reading your posts.
Thanks again for being such great contacts!
Best,
Tracie
