I agree self policing seems to work, but not all the time otherwise debates like this would not be raised.
Hmm...well I can see where you're coming from AntiS but also DerbyT's point of view. I think it depends on motive of the poster.

As a non-meat eater I wouldn't go on a "best-beef" or whatever forum and tell 'em they were being offensive to my parochial sensitivities. I'm not suggesting that's happened here but merely using an analogy in support that an occassional visitor may have a bias to peddle.

I'd not swapped posts/shared threads with Henry before and admit I was suprised to read them advocating a regime of warn-then-ban for racist or sexist (but not religous?) comments. The case for which I think is unproven (and in my view both uncessary and unwarranted)

I completely agree with jodg that I don't see why we need a code of conduct. Too much UKA-like that for comfort

Anyway, I'm too tired after today's race to think much more... I really must get out more and do some training than spend time on here...

Let's move on to running and racing!
