In my response to Fernando's question about Rolf's "execution", I stated that Rolf had copied Ed's posts here to rgcc in order to continue ranting about Ed apologizing. Rolf, in rgcc, posted that this was not true, and since Ed's post about Aegon, which was quoted in Rolf's post, still has not shown up on my news server, I was about to post this reply as evidence that he did copy Ed's post to rgcc. Before I did, I checked Deja News and found that Ed had posted the exact same post on rgcc, that he did here. Therefore, I want to correct my statement that he copied Ed's posts to rgcc. My incorrect assumption was based on the fact that Ed had said he would no longer post to rgcc, and my news server's incomplete listing of posts. This brings me to the question: What is the material that Rolf is supposed to have copied to rgcc? I had assumed it was this post, but now I do not know. When I originally saw the notice that Rolf's access had been rescinded, I was going to protest that his expulsion was unfair, since, although he continued his usual style in rgcc, he had been very careful to avoid any such posting in CCC. Even the posts relating to CSTal's miss of the draw here did not contain the insinuations he added in rgcc, and therefore were not inflammatory. In other words, IMO, Rolf had been very careful to follow the rules laid down in the access agreement here. But when I saw the reason given that he had copied CCC posts to rgcc, and I also thought he had, I didn't protest as strongly as I would have otherwise. So, I would like to know what he copied from here to rgcc. Now the request: If he didn't copy any posts from here to rgcc, I would request that his access be re-instated for as long as he is willing to follow the rules. The rules did not state that one could lose access for insults posted in rgcc, and while I admit that it may be hard to ignore his posts there for some of the founders here, I think that it is unwise to expel him if he has followed the rules. Sorry, if this is off-topic, but it's not far off. kp
