hi, couldn't agree more. short of removing a handful of members from this
list, the trend is set to continue. we can't tighten the guidelines any more
than they are because we'd be accused of being control freaks. and yet the
mods get blamed when things get out of hand. i'm on record as saying if i
was a developer i'd think twice about staying/joining this list these days.
there are at least 3 members of this list i'd love to throw off, but even as
co moderator and owner, i've got to follow the guidelines! smile. it's
ironic actually, it's over 2 weeks since i said i was considering stepping
down and i'd give my decision in 48 hours, noone's jumped on my back yet for
missing my deadline!
