I submitted multiple notifications.. never addressed
I emailed him... he never responded.
all the while, the 3 post rule was violated multiple times and my request for no anti_med posts was cleverly ignored.
Bob is the one who creates the need for members to use social pressure to moderate what he refuses to tend to.
I don`t necessarily want more rules, but if he won`t honor the ones he`s made, social pressure is all we have to work with. I think it`s fine for a poster to post their opinions, regardless of how much it may not make sense to most of us. But their right to express their opinion should not dominate someone else`s thread. It`s not civil and their disruptiveness and rudeness should not be protected, should it?
It worries me...
