OK Kent, As you're now perpetuating the very thing which you asked us to stop...
OK, don't take that seriously! :-) Actually, should we not recognize that discussing administration is quite on topic? I digress. What I'm interested in is this fact: "But I consider Tom a good friend." It prompts me to ask: would you carry enforce the rules of the list, if in a severe case it came to that, even if it in involved a friend? With respect, over the last few months at times, it seems that we have sailed perilously close to situations where I would thought that enough conventions (avoiding the word 'rules' here) had been abused for some sanction to happen, yet it didn't. You being a good friend of the perpetrator of a lot of the malicious noise of recent months (mo) is a revelation to me. I appreciate your honesty though.

Actually this never happened, as far as I remember. It's possible that I posted something, that you're misconstruing. But I consider Tom a good friend, and would remember having threatened him with the boot. For that matter, Tom would remember it. > But where do we draw the line....like i said jus trying to > rationally discuss this without attacking anyone. > As I stated, the best policy 99% of the time is to do absolutely nothing. Maybe it was a mistake to get involved with this last discussion, but I have a pet peeve about threads that devolve into complaining about OT posts, so my personal prejudices came into play. That's the problem with using human beings for jobs like this.
