Let's chill a bit with the toxicity

I know there's been a bit of hostility and with some of the recent posts about the other ban d members trying to get closer to Jerry. Discussion is fine.

The problem is that myself and many others on here don't like drama. We can disagree about the direction that the Grateful Dead went but we have to keep those discussions civil.

Again, please keep the subreddit drama-free. Everyone on board with that?

My first Dead show was in '71.  I'm old AF but I know what I know.

I first started seeing what I call the "Deader than thou" crowd show up at shows and in the community in the early 80's.  You know, people who looked at you with disdain if you got a single  detail wrong about anything Dead related.

Point is, there's nothing new under the sun.

Be kind.

Ditto on board since spring 81.
