Oh, goody.

For a while there I was afraid Diogenes was right and this forum would get boring.

Whew!

I don't think extra attention is being paid solely because it is a school official, but instead because a member who was permanently banned for having multiple accounts was re-instated. I can not recall a previous instance of this happening in VMD history. I believe that long-time contributors also have some interest in seeing that the fora don't degrade into a cesspool of trolls, so in the face of unprecedented, unexplained action, some questions naturally arose. Upon re-reading my previous comments, I see how they could be taken as accusatory, but that was not my intent. My apologies, no harm meant.

In any case, I do thank Doc and the mods for their unpaid efforts at keeping the forum members in line to ensure that VMD stays as useful and informative as it is.

Hope this helps.

p.s. Neilc's ban was recently changed from temporary to permanent once someone pointed out the error to us.


This looks BAD and is actually a POOR reflection!

I missed the point of the highlighted section.

And if you have NEVER complained and NEVER given the benefit of the doubt in the past, how does that affect your point.

I totally agree. The moderators act as the final judges to evaluate violations of the TOS
