I was looking in this past
thread and couldn’t find the bit where you called for yourself to be
banned in it? Perhaps you could point me to the correct posts.
Although perhaps you don’t consider that flaming?
|
Actually, that’s not what I consider flaming. The tone was respectful, and
seemed to be mostly looking for information. It would be nice if more
disagreements were conducted in this type of format.
|
I don’t consider it respectful and nor did Todd or Lenny from what I could
see. I find the whole thread very distasteful and would be very unhappy to
see more like it. Out of interest do you find
this post respectful?
|
I hadn’t seen that thread, but having just looked at it I have to agree with
Kelly-- Mark was not flaming at all. In the post you cite above I sense Mark’s
frustration at the reaction he got from his question, which, while perhaps
indelicate, was certainly not flaming.

Gets a bit difficult when personal opinion is involved.

Yes, it does become difficult. That’s where admin judgment comes in - and
the respect of enough of the members of a community to listen to and honor
the decisions made by people in charge. By that token, Todd and Suz would
have the decision on whether it’s truly a flame or not, regardless of what
you or Mark or I think. So, while I don’t think it right that only Eric was
suspended for the recent discussions, it was Suz’ decision and I’ll respect
that.

If Mark had shown the same respect as you we would not be in this thread
discussing it. In my opinion his post is as much of a form of trolling as any
I’ve seen in the Qwelder thread. But as you point out, my opinion is no more
valid than his.

The way it appears to me Mark has asked a simple question (the one that had been
asked by Frank and gone unanswered) and you have reacted by bringing up an old
and irrelevant thread in which Mark is guilty of nothing more than lack of tact.
Certainly there is no comparison between it and what has gone on in recent
weeks.
