Hi Tim,

I can not comment on the alleged post about Fernado, so I won't.

I will however put in my two cents about Graham's post about his thoughts on you
being a former member that may have been punished in some way and are back to
create problems.

He is dead smack on. For a new user to know who removes what posts over a given
period of time (seeing how you just registered on 01.15.06) would lead any
normal person to the opinion you are just a new reincarnation of an old problem.

You also seem to do _nothing_ but attack the moderators, and are about the 6th
reincarnation of someone like "you" in recent times that does this.

Our job as moderators is tough enough without someone stating that because we
deleted a post that contained a personal attack against another member (it was
me btw that deleted your post.. not Graham) it is part of some grand scheme to
publicize some character flaw we have.

Currently your posts are writing checks that your membership can not cash, so
let me give you some advice:

1. Do not attack people. It is fine to criticize someone here, but don't attack
them. You can engage in a healthy, heated debate and not have your posts deleted
just because someone complains. Just this past weekend there were several
complaints about one thread and I left it totally alone. The only people
complaining were the three people actually attacking each other :)

2. If you truely are a new member, gain your own opinions. Just because a
"friend" feels we are too harsh, sit back and see what we do and what we don't
do. Graham is an extremely nice fellow. In fact out of the current moderation
team, I would rate myself "Most likely to blow a gasket".

3. Apologies never hurt when you are wrong. It is something I have had to learn
to do, and can be beneficial. *cough*youcouldalwaysofferonetograhamhere?*cough*

I would like to see you stick around as I am always happy to see new people join
 and contribute what they can. Everyone can be useful here... can you?

Peter
