what to do
I have been posting here for a while, and there is a great deal of good information and good posts. The simple solution is to avoid the off topic
area, and stick to the Baja posts. And Grover, still like reading your posts off of the off topic forum.

Not a simple solution
AA, with all due respect, avoiding the Off Topic does not avoid the ugly stuff.
THEY (and THEY know who THEY are) have corrupted the General Discussion topics as well.
Gotta get better or the good folk are gonna get outta Dodge.
Baja Arriba!!

But, just hit the report post button if you see junk by anyone... and then give Doug or the moderators a day to see the posts and delete or move them
to Off Topic. Don't run away because you see junk or fighting here... That would only please and empower those who come here to cause trouble.

Forum Decorum
I too am disappointed in the quality of postings. "Just ignore the bad apples and they will go away" is not going to do it, there are too many of
them. It has been a lesson for me to have monitored this site for the past few months. I used to read it daily, to the extent my wife thought I had
a mistress. But you are right, it has gottenjust plain depressing wading through all the "stuff" polluting the thing. Now I look in from time to
time to see if things have gotten better.
(they haven't.) The times I have been in the Baja I have met and seen two distinct types of people: those who truely appreciate the place and respect
the rights of others doing the same thing; and those who think the whole place is their personal playground, having no respect for the local residents
(both US and Mexican) or the enviornment. (I am not a tree hugger). They come complete with loud, sick music , too much booze and false bravado. They
drive their dirt bikes, ATV's and 4x4 all over the place with no regard for safety, serenity, or compassion for the others of us who go there if for
no other reason than to get away from the self-indulging missing links who represent a disaringly large percentage of the population of the North side
of the border. If we could only come up with a filter that could catch 'em at the border maybe we could apply it to this site and return it to the
people who really are Nomads. Said enough!!

Well Put...
I have been a long time member whom usually sits on his hands, trying not to reply to some of the posts. Even as I type this I feel it's falling on
deaf ears and only those in the crowd with too much to say will be heard. This board serves a very useful and entertaining purpose, we should all be
grateful to have it. It's a melting pot of personalities, many of whom contribute genuine info while others just like to hear themselves talk. Come up
with a way to filter posts to the users preference. Ultra Nomads could talk till there blue in the face....

I am sitting here laughing my flipping arse of at you people. This discussion has been going on since the chicken coupers took over amigo's. There
is no solution to your problems on the internet. Things are not black and white. People are not all good, or all bad. You can either join the fun,
or sit back and whine about it.

Damn, there you are. Yes. I still have it and the offer is good.
I just returned from Cantu this mourning, Left at 1:30 am, made it to Vegas by 8. I noticed on the way North the broke ground on the new Costco
just south of Ensenada. Damn, LA bay look out.
I will be back the 13th. When you going to be North? I will start collecting donations. I'm keeping it short because I know you are online now.
Let me know what is happening, I'll wait.:moon:
