As far as I can see it without knowing Fernandos post, there are 2 problems here. 1) Fernando kind of overreacted due to his message deletion. 2) Bruce who strictly sticks to the charter. My personal point of view is that (1) COULD/SHOULD be no problem. When I was moderator there were also messages deleted that I had written. I had no problem with that. I was not very lucky about that but I understood and accepted that at least another moderator saw my posts as inappropriate. Where is the problem to say, OK, maybe it was wrong and shouldn't be posted here? I know that there are some guys having big problems with that, some left CCC because of such. TOLERANCE is the keyword. A bit more tolerance instead of being stubborn and feeling offended. The same for Bruce. A bit more tolerance and he wouldn't have deleted that joke. I am totally aware that this here is a computer chess club, but do we have to stick that strictly to this? Offtopics should be handled with appropriate sensitivity. Jokes with Nazis, sodomy etc. are certainly not tolerable but I don't assume Fernando having made such a joke. So PROBABLY there wouldn't have a problem risen if more T O L E R A N C E would exist. That's all I expect from everyone her. And I don't think that I expect too much. Think about it. Harald Faber, glad not to have been elected :-)
