3. We have an entirely separate area for insulting, personal attacking, thuggish behavior. We have an area where that type of thing is the norm and it's allowed. But that type of stuff is not allowed outside of this area, and we certainly try to keep it out of the Bears and other NFL forums. You won't see the area, unless you ask to, because it's cordoned off with permissions. But, if you see reference to "The Bar Scene" or "TBS"... that's it.
We also have rival fans like loki the administrator here, who so happens to be a Packers fan. Don't worry. His bark is worse than his bite...most of the time! lol

The antagonists and attackers have kind of taken over and i'm getting to old to put up with that crap. The mods are trying, but the same group dominates the board and tends to follow individuals that they disagree with from thread to thread just to deride their opinions even further. I actually registered in this forum about 7 years ago at the same time i joined the other, but i think this one was still in it's relative infancy at the time and there was not much activity.
There are about a 1/2 dozen of us from the other board that have become fed up, and through pm's we've agreed look for new homes and get back to one another. I'm betting some of them are already hovering around here as there are not a lot of quality options. I'm sure you can all understand that it's hard to judge the quality of a forum without hanging out for awhile as it is a rather personal determination. That said, you may see me (a stranger) popping into some conversations a bit to "test the waters" if you will. Those of us that are looking are generally a little more "mature" (a nice way of saying "older" i guess) and are looking for some real discussion without the pissing contest that can sometimes result from opposing view points. I would describe us all as relatively sophisticated football fans that enjoy a good discussion, and even debate without degrading to personal insults. After all, we should all be doing this for fun, right?
Anyway, i look forward to sharing some discussions with you all, and perhaps we can have some laughs along the way as well.
welcome aboard bro!

As you can see from this post from one of our friendly staff members who is also the owner of a very rare antique "ban hammer" we do host a forum where posters can become as insufferable an a$$hole as they care to be. A little something for everyone.
We're a very tolerant bunch around here. How many other Bears fan sites have you run across that has a dyed in the wool Packers Fan like this "cheesehead" on it's staff of moderators. Don't let the Japanese address fool you. This guy bleeds Green and Gold and he was really hard to live with after that NFC Championship Game last year. 
I'm getting to that age where a lifetime warranty just doesn't mean as much to me anymore as an afternoon nap. 
Honey Badger Don't Care. Honey Badger Don't Give a Shit.

I wanted to kill loki and Evernight. Really. I did. I bleed navy, orange, and white, and when I saw that green and gold win the championship last year, that tore my chunky ass up. lol

Its ok, Soul...the Packers chances of winning the SB this year is exactly the same as the Bears :)
Q:Why do Packers wear yellow pants?
A:Cheaper then supplying them with diapers.
