Welcome aboard! Definitely a more laid back atmosphere here. Absolutely no problem with importing your ratings, BTW, in fact it is encouraged.

Good to have you here sir! I’m in Des Moines, next time I’m on my way to Omaha I’ll let you know, maybe have a celebratory beer or 19!

Creeped your profile! Kearney, NE...you have lots of access to Thunderhead. I’m still getting acquainted with Nebraska beers as I moved from South Dakota.

I won’t steal your spotlight, I’ll just contribute along side of ya! ;)

I can vouch for the quality of the Great Nebraska Beer Fest in August, having had the honor to attend the last one. I was also treated to a pretty spectacular multi-day pub and brewery crawl by HuskerTan and his accomplice jbuskirk. Omaha beer week looks like fun, but last time I went it got blizzarded out (it’s in December). And the fest I went to a couple weeks ago in Sioux Falls SD was fun too!

Welcome, from London, UK!

As others have noted, RB takes a more hands-off approach to moderation than BA does - which seems to work well, for the most part. The only ways you could run into trouble are by physically threatening others, being intensely and repeatedly disrespectful, or by actively trying to sabotage the site. Those things are taken seriously.

Another point, just an FYI regarding trade threads: generally, commenting on trade threads is discouraged. If somebody posts ’ISO: Rare Cantillon, FT: Sierra Nevada Pale Ale’, there’s no need for people to pile in and say the poster is an idiot. If you want to open a dialogue with the poster, it’s best to do it via private message. Also on the trading front, ’auction trades’ are discouraged, generally. Of course, none of these affronts would get you booted, but it would rub people the wrong way.

Have fun!
