H2Andy:All users don't always see the way the thread degenerates before it is pulled. Also, depending on which Moderator responds,
the "pull" threshold may be different. This is not a perfect method, but it's the best we have at the moment.
DennisS:Sometimes I read what Genesis had to say, sometimes I skipped the long winded ones, I'm capable of editing what I want to read and what I don't.
H2Andy:we have to balance Genesis' freedom to express his thoughts and the possible harm to the board and to users that may stem from what Genesis says.
H2Andy:in balancing the equities, we felt it was proper to ask Genesis no to spouse his view as to that point on the board.
Northeastwrecks:But its not. SB is under the control of NetDoc and the mods in the same manner that my property is under my control. If its on my property, I decide whether something stays or goes.
If its on SB, its entirely appropriate for the mods to decide what stays and what should be discarded.
LUBOLD8431:It is obvious that nothing useful is going to come of reviving this thread, so could a mod please lock it and let it die...
