I'd like to say this one more time for anyone who looking at this: When one of you does something we feel is not appropriate. We don't sell T-shirts with the words "worlds worst person" on them and give them away. We simply delete it and ask you not to do it again as politely as we can. End of story. No personal feelings are involved. I recently removed an image that depicted something really bad. The artist complained about me removing it in a public forum. But when I showed him why it was removed. He realized that it gave an impression that he didn't mean to express. Here's the kicker I removed all of my public comments from public view to protect the artist's reputation. Yes...that's right. Even after he complained that I was unfair in public. I did what I needed to do to protect him. We (mods and admins.) aren't out to get you. I personally go to great lengths prove it every day. I'm not concerned with what you think about me. I'm only concerned that I treat everyone as fairly and politely as possible. When I give you a warning. I expect you to understand that this is something that is necessary. But it has no reflection on who you are as a person. Nor my personal opinion of you. I expect all of you to be able brush it off. And not take it personally. While still respecting the need for rules. This is a big place. It can look kind of cold and corporate sometimes. And it's easy to look at us mods. as the "Evil Empire" But I'm just as much a member now, as I have been in the past. ScottA
