Moderators HAVE to have the flexibility to delete bad posts when they occur and they also HAVE to have the authority to do that with no one's permission. Bruce did the right thing. This post should have been deleted. I have been somewhat lenient trying to not create waves and probably Bruce has as well. But, when a post obviously begs for removal, it should be removed. Fernando is a great guy, but nominating him for moderator was probably a mistake of this body. He personality is just not cut out for it. This can be seen by the fact that the ONLY post Bruce deleted was Fernando's and the ONLY thread I deleted originally became controversial because of Fernando, hence, I deleted his posts as well. I am fairly lenient, but Fernando's moderation stance is almost non-existent. I'm sorry if that opinion bothers people, but that is how I see it. Bruce and I are not ganging up on Fernando, he made the decision himself to post what he did. Even the subject of his post had "Off Topic, but" in it. I hope we can put this behind us and move forward. KarinsDad :(
