Welcome, and Thank You for participating in our Forums!

Volunteer-built and run, we rely on the cooperation of all members to make this a successful, popular and friendly venue to hang out and discuss our common passion - ALL THINGS GLASS!

2. Common courtesy and respect is expected from everyone. Differences of opinion are welcome, but please refrain from incendiary comment. Personal attacks/flaming will not be tolerated - those who engage in this practice risk suspension or banishing.

10. The SysAdmin is the final authority on this forum. While you may use the facilities freely within the terms stipulated above, this still remains a privately owned Forum.
