This "special policy" that you hope is in force is nothing but >a policy of double standards, and as such not fair. There is no double standards. Bruce was trying to say that the policy was the same for Amir as well as Robert as well as everyone else. If you will recall, we deleted a joke post of Fernando's and it started a huge crapstorm. Even the moderators are not immune to post deletion when deemed necessary. However, we as moderators HAVE been more lenient than some in the past and have used more "Moderation: Please Behave" type of posts within the last 4 months. If we had not taken this approach, I can think of at least a dozen posts in the last 2 months that I would have deleted. This technique seems to work to some level, but no solution is perfect. As Dann has repeatedly stated, it's best when people moderate themselves (both in writing and in reading). KarinsDad :) > >Enrique >
