There have been no rule violations in this thread.[/quote]

Then why did you report it?

Every comment that contains dissent is the result of the mod's/admin's posts.

Yeah, those sons of bitches are human too.

I've said before I think Sparta is the best admin we have ever had. He is just too protective of the mods and it is troubling that all the feedback in the threads about the new and improved Guidelines and Policies version 7.2 was ignored, but hey that is what discretion is all about.

I don't think Sp is too protective of anyone and I can't blame em for ignoring version 7.2, I did.

I guess I'm tryin to say that if you are going to post, on this site, you need to have a thicker skin. This is the net and do you really want a conversation where you have to worry about everything you are going to say? How someone else might interpret it? I don't. I also don't think JOM intended his remark as an insult at all although I understand how you took it as one. He may have thought it was more of a compliment to you than an insult. I don't think action should take place when there is any question as to whether or not something is an insult if there is a rule that says you can't name names it's foolish.



I'm with Inky and glad to see the conversation take place at all.

Oh, I have a thick skin.



I just hate the games that the mods/admins play. When the membership complains about certain posters and they continue with their nonsense while others are punished, it is pretty clear someone is being given preferred treatment. When asked about it, the next thing you know we get a new bunch of rules. The membership as a whole was doing pretty good with the rules that existed, new ones are proposed when the mods have trouble understanding them or enforcing them fairly. Then, to add insult to insult, the mods ask for feedback on the new and improved rules and ignore the feedback.



I put up with quite a bit of nonsense. I generally ignore most of it unless the attacks and insults begin to escalate and become nastier.

Your post doesn't make much sense.



JOM opened the door to insulting members. He is free to post if he is respectful to the other members, just like you and me. He wasn't respectful.

[/quote]



You made an issue of his post not being objective. If he wasn't a mod you would have

just argued with his statement.

For the record...



#1 - I am not insulted in any way.
