Something's come up that I think we have to be concerned about and discuss. When I say &quot;discuss&quot; I also have to add that we're all on the same team and should respect one another enough to not type messages that &quot;bite&quot; at one another. 

Message board communication is difficult sometimes, and it can get ugly if the creator of the message isn't careful. You can find yourself intending to say one thing and coming across as saying something entirely different sometimes and it can continue to snowball. 

As council members and officers in our video game club (Excelsior!), we're working together. That doesn't mean we all have to agree, but when we disagree, we do it with a little style and grace. :)This is an officer/council member forum, for which access is granted only to officers and council members. Here, we discuss issues behind the scenes. Sometimes our issues that we discuss are controversial. 

This is not to say we're backstabbing cowards, afraid to bring issues into the light. But we are the secret ruling society, and we're utilizing the confidentiality of this forum to solve and discuss problems without stirring the pot. 

If I were to say &quot;The Jewish majority of the guild are starting to get a little too inquisitive about the guild bank funds&quot; I would hope that I don't log on to a tell from the now very upset Jewish majority members about my apparrent  prejudice. I'd be like &quot;But...how did you....know about...?&quot;

Some of the issues we discuss here, such as problems with membership behavior and questions on how we should handle members who act in a way we're not in agreement with.... [color=yellow:28760ff50f]should stay private[/color:28760ff50f]. We're tip toe'ing through tulips when it comes to potential drama, because basically no one wants drama in their video game. 

But these are sometimes volatile subjects that can produce either a lot of drama, or very little. There is a very good reason these are forums that only we have the prestigious access to. The content of this forum could potentially rock the earth on its freaking axis.

So, this has been a dreadwindian way of asking that we all appreciate the confidentiality of these topics we deal with here. We are having information leak out of our secret conclave of Illuminati'ish leadershipy talks in such a way that it inspires this post.

Thanks for reading this and understanding. Look, yellow smoke!
