This exact thing happened to me, I posted a rather innocent article wanting to know the reasons why programmers don't sell their programs to the public, and was insulted about ten times, none of the moderators said a word, but as soon as I started swinging back then the moderators jumped on my with all fours!! There is obviously favoritism, and selective persecution at this group. We need moderators who are more inteliigent, less emotional, and who are not prone to favoritism. Some people here can say anying and insult anyone, and no one says a word. Then there is others that do absolutely nothing, but perhaps make a negative implication and the whole group attacks them. There are obviously some unspoken tabboo's here. I think the number 1 tabboo is never say anything negative about crafty no matter how honest your opinion is. Extremly childish to say the least. > > These moderators did not comment about the uncivility of the forum when others >insulted me, but when I said something in my defense, then all of a sudden, I >was the one who was being obnoxious.
