The thread of death! Be sure to read all the pages, especially the E-Mail posting party
The evidence seems to indicate that AG posted her E-Mail so SG could contact her, so other people posted theirs under the impression that it was now 'ok'.
So, rather than give them a warning, they were banned.
It's amazing that a resource like this, where people actually help promote MWD's products and services while also helping each other, they are treated like children by immature powers that be.
I wonder if Michelle approves of this, or is she also as shallow?
I'm pretty much up to speed and figured the usual suspect was right in the middle of it.
I was right.
That woman couldn't "manage" her own ass out of a wet paper bag. I don't know what cracker jack sh*t a person has to pass through to "qualify" to be a moderator but I hope no one laid out any money for it in her case.

Frank--you're smarter than that.
And if they want to be reinstated, they know what to do.

The moderation on this board continues to be inconsistent. A moderator, by title I would presume, is here to MODERATE. To me that implies keeping things on an even keel, smoothing out the rough spots, mediating disputes, etc.
Too often moderation on this board means banning and post editing. Perhaps (though a political moderate/conservative) I am too liberal in my leaning here, but I would expect those two actions to be absolute LAST resorts, not primary avenues of dealing with "situations."
But for those who posted email addresses under the guise that "we figured it must be ok since someone else did it,".....please. We are all adults here. Normally when someone inadvertently posts contact information, others will post to the effect that this is not currently allowed, reminding the original poster of the policy.
I can appreciate taking a stand. I've done so myself a few times. But like I tell my kids in class, be prepared for the consequences when you make decisions like that. And take those consequences like an adult.
As others have pointed out far too many times, this is THEIR board, not ours, however ridiculous that might be. If THEY want to throw their weight around, it WILL be thrown around, right or wrong.
What ultimately has happened here is that this community has LOST several posters who offered valuable advice and support for other members of the board.
The powers that be HOPEFULLY realize this, though everyone I think will understand if some of us are a bit skeptical of that.
Again, sorry for the hijack Frank.

Right.
They have to pucker up and kiss your ass via Virginia, which you call "apologizing".
Whoa--I thought I was on a thread about healing, but y'all are giving me a headache!
I think I've seen other people do this once or twice--but if one of the "banned" ones just creates a new name, if they're still interested in posting, they could probably come in under the radar. Just a thought....
