During such a time, no notifications would be attended to, regardless of their volume and degree of repetition. Over the past few years, none of the few notifications I submitted elicited a written reply nor an action on the board. I was very disappointed, as you might imagine. I didn't take it personally, though. I certainly didn't take Dr. Bob's silence and inaction to my notifications as a promotion of hate towards a group of people based upon my affiliation with that group. I don't see antisemitism in his behavior. I don't see antisemitism in the posts that have been directed at you or about you. Perhaps I am blind to it, but, as a Jew, I have a vested interest in being aware of antisemitism.

I am unsure as to how you arrived at some of the conclusions that you have posted here above. If you could post answers to the following, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
A. If it is possible that Mr Hsiung had a life outside of here for an extended period of time, what criteria do you use, if any, to make the claim that,[...During that time, no notification would be attended to, regardless of their volume or repetition....].
B. If it is possible for that to be the case, could it also not be possible that that is the case?
C. If harm during that time period could come to people as a result of that there are numerous outstanding requests /notifications from me, would it be supportive for Mr Hsiung to leave the requests/notifications from me outstanding?
D. Now that these requests/notifications still remain outstanding, could harm to some others still be a result of those being outstanding?
E. In the outstanding requests from me to Mr Hsiung here, in the ones that have the potential to arouse anti-Semitic feelings or lead a Jew to feel put down/accused, could those posts in question have the potential to induce hatred toward the Jews on the grounds that there could be a sub set of readers here that could think that the hate is supportive because Mr Hsiung states that support takes precedence and that he does not wait?
