Gentlemen,
The site has NOT been hacked! Things were becoming a little too heated and personal and I edited a couple of posts.
I'd also made a post of my own which I submitted about the time the server decided to "take a dump" and my original message never appeared.
I spent a few hours trying to get back on last evening without success.
I have allowed, against my better judgement, this discussion to continue, even though this is RAILROAD.NET.
Those of us who participate here are fortunate to have this site, free of charge, (unless you choose to make a donation) to discuss railway topics.
One of the ground rules here is that "flaming" or personal attacks will be removed immediately. If you choose to question the intelligence or judgement of those at Railpitures.Net as to why certain photographs were accepted or rejected fine-however, sniping between forumers here will not be tolerated.
I will allow the discussion to continue for now, however any further discord between participants here at Railroad.Net is unacceptable.
As I mentioned to one forumer in a PM, it is fine to disagree, but please do so in a mature and respectful manner.
Any future incidents of of insults or name calling will result in this topic being locked permanently. I trust that everyone here is intelligent enough to carry on without degenerating into personal attacks.
Respectfully, your moderator, whose almost infinite patience wore very thin yesterday afternoon.
