Post Deletion

[kytdunne]

I don't read every thread, much less every post on this board. 'That said...' Today's the first time I've read a post that was created for the sole purpose of singling out a board member for identification and personal attack.

In my opinion, it's prudent to replace the text in such posts with an admin note that the original was deleted.

This is, in no way, an attempt to tell anyone how to run this board. But as I've been vocal in my annoyances with censorship, I think it's worth mentioning that there are times when it's necessary to police the playground.

Thanks, Kyt. Well said.

As I think we've learned a few times in the past, if anyone has a problem with a fellow board member, it's best handled privately. Take it up with them behind the scenes in a PM. Please.

Kyt, you are absolutely right and I never thought I'd say that (either about you being right or that something should be edited ).

See all the fun I miss when I'm away for a day? I'm really sorry that what happened caused some of you so much stress and unhappiness and I hope we can move on without any hard feelings.

See what a computer with a defect can do? I missed it totally.

Thanks to all those who keep this board fun.

Later, Carl

Out of it for a couple of days and missing the entire episode! I wondered what had happened and thought, "Oh well!"
