Perhaps not. I want to know why I am beign provoked elsewhere. Yesterday I had an email from Bruce that was an "official warning". Bruce said I should post on-topics. Bruce copied the email warning to the other moderators. Fair enough, I thought, if he felt this way. So I posted only on-topic. I made three on-topic posts and did not do anything else that Bruce could say was an attack. I posted this in reply to Ratko Atomic's post: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- On November 15, 1999 at 17:36:28, Bella Freud wrote: [snip] > > >I consider it needs 24 hours to digest the true genius of your post. > >It generated in me an instant crystalisation of thought.

Then I got a reply to my post from the anonymous moderator "KarinsDad". This is his reply: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I posted this same thought a few months back. Of course, my post was not as eloquent or well thought out as Ratko's. You must have missed it. I guess the idea is not that appealing to you anymore since I never contribute anything worthwhile. KarinsDad :) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think that the last sentence is a provocation. Or a troll. It is designed to get me to react. Why does an anonymous moderator do this? He must have read the "warning" from Bruce, and he must also have seen that I was making on-topic posts. So why is he trying to stir things up? It seems that there are some folk who don't like what I do, whatever I do, and who are trying to get me banned. Or is there some other wierd motive? Bella
