Bob... bad analogy, this is CCC and Cyberspace not New York city and Interpol.. completely different... but I understand your theory. >Actions outside CCC are a part of overall behavior... and misbehavior >somewhere else is just as valid to consider here as it is where it actually >occurred. Uhhhh... Bob what you have just stated is a post or statement made *anywhere* on the Internet could and should be used against a CCC member. If a Board Member is anti-pornography and a CCC member was caught posting at a pornographic Usenet NG utilizing Deja News, does this mean they deserve to be carded.... If so the person *may* honestly have grounds for a lawsuit against the Board member and ICD as they control the server.... >When scout leaders are evaluated for positions such as scoutmaster/assistant >scoutmaster, their actions *outside* the scouting environment are *definitely* >used to accept/reject them. Again Bob.... this is CCC and Cyberspace not the Boy Scouts, whether a person is irresponsible in some areas of their lives is irrelevant, conduct at CCC is and can only be the ultimate judgment.... if CCC Member(A) called CCC Member(X) a foul name at the ICC, should another member be able to Cherry Pick that post and send it to the CCC Board... Does the Board *really* know what is happening at ICC, perhaps there are other posts, chat line discussions etc. causing the *post* in question to be foul.. the variables are endless and therefore, your theory can never work properly... >This "premise" is baloney... it might be how you'd "like" it to be, but that >doesn't mean that is the way it "ought" to be... This is the way it *is*, has *always* been and should *stay*....and I applaud the current Board Members for realizing this !! >moderators can't "police" usenet, but there is nothing in CCC's charter to say >they can't use behavior there to affect their decisions here... Bob... your stating an "OXYMORON" if they are judging Members behaviour off-board then they are "policing" Usenet... BTW.. nice job on your KKup2 Crafty game... right now my CM5500 game is floundering my opponent *still* has not moved.. read my post to *you* at rgcc about it.. Cheers, Sean
