<DIV><SPAN class=135353317-03122008><FONT size=2 face=Arial>You know.. this
whole "mods come back" and "rude post" and the rest of it.. is just a big blow
up over something very minor!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=135353317-03122008><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The post Ann made
was all of two lines .... **TWO** Lines ... it was just a comment that
she'd gotten mostly good emails except for a rude one from bob, but because she
didn't say *which* bob, it made people wonder what "bob" she meant.

<DIV><SPAN class=135353317-03122008><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Ann **could have**
put in " (not bob the dog) " but that was an oversight or accident not
to.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=135353317-03122008><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Bob **could have**
simply posted "Hey Ann's 'rude bob' wasn't me 'bob the dog'"

<DIV><SPAN class=135353317-03122008><FONT size=2 face=Arial>But that *TOO*..
wasn't done!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=135353317-03122008><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Normally what should
happen.. is if someone's offended or getting heat for something.. they should
contact the original poster, ask them to re-post explaining their point OR as in
this case, just a simple ... "sorry all I didn't mean bob the dog, but some
other bob"</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=135353317-03122008><FONT size=2 face=Arial>But no! ... now we
have this big brouhaha over to moderate or not to moderate ... is that really
the question?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=135353317-03122008><FONT size=2 face=Arial>The moderators have
been doing just fine in the "hiatus mode" that they're in .. I've not seen
hugely nasty, nor anything the other way... I think people need to stop jumping
to conclusions, and then airing their reverse gripes on the board, and handle
anything they feel miffed about OFF the boards first!! .. Use the
moderators **only** when that off board conversation breaks down, and then
only when its something that you feel really needs corrected in the public
view.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=135353317-03122008><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Again.. all of you
should go back to Ann's original post, just to see how minor it was ... and then
ask how it "got all blowed up" into some uproar as if the moderators don't
do anything at all (which isn't true as was also posted in the past
day).</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

for all the positive feed back on my email. It makes up for the very rude
