What I do not understand is how Paulo is allowed to go off calling someone ignorant, xenophopic, racist and so forth and how this is contributing to the sport of Triathlon and this forum. I would hope that a moderator would send him an email explaining this is not acceptable and to cool it. Also for any other as well as it is not only Paulo that is doing this but it does appear that he as of late, doing most of it.

I will also say that I should not have called or implied that someone is ignorant and arrogant as this does not contribute anything positive to a triathlon forum so I have deleted the comments made in hopes that other will do the same and make this a nice place to talk about all things triathlon.

I would also like to say that if you do not have anything positive to say or that your intentions are to ridicule, humiliate, name call or anything else not constructive maybe it is time to move on.

If someone does continue to do such things, then I would ask the rest of the forum to ignore the person and let them show who they really are to Dan and the other moderators in the hopes that they will be banned.

One last item that I think should be addressed is the user profiles. I would ban everyone until their user profiles are updated with their real names at least to show that their intention on the site are good. I do not see why someone that is hiding behind an anonymous user name should be allowed to post here.

That is my piece for the day.
