Tom, your intervention into our discussion here shows your inabililty to understand the source from which the hostility on this forum has originated!
Furthermore, your intervention against those individuals who have attempted to elevate the level of the discussions here so that they might function as a source of useful information to the Aspect design team was ill-conceived and out of context!
No one had asked you to "baby sit"! The membership was doing as good a job as possible in maintaining a cap on poor behavior, until you undercut our effort!
Now you allow one member the continued right to use profanity and direct attacks against other members, all the while lecturing the community on good behavior???
Most curious!
I too now question the validity of the conversations here.........that I have worked with other like-minded members to generate!!!
What kind of personal demeanor is expected of members if they are allowed to insult the intelligence of other members, and engage in outright attacks of a very personal nature......and with the use of profanity at that!
In the very thread that you lectured me concerning "
this is beyond acceptable conduct" I wrote:
Having rules of engagement can be important in any discourse, others certainly respect that...........in fact I think we all expect this!!!
Do you understand what this means?
Having rules to discuss issues is important!
Others respect this approach!
In fact as individuals we expect to be treated with respect and dignity............if this does not occur then the aggrieved
community has the right to discipline the offender(s)!
YOU WOULD DISAGREE WITH THIS???I would suggest that you revisit the threads on your board here, so that you may assess the proper context of the discussions that have transpired!
Perhaps you may consider it easiest to assail the honorable efforts of the few who have tried to abide by the rules of proper forum etiquette, instead of disciplining the aggressor!
This approach will do nothing but encourage further aggressiveness by those responsible for the inciteful behavior in the first place.........as is evidenced by the degeneration of this thread!
Either reverse this situation, or you can expect the "brain-drain" to commence!
