That's his opinion, and he is the mod.
You don't think that is so, but nobody cares because you are not a mod.
Simple solution would have been for her to leave the thread, she chose staying and the ban.
How I would feel if it happened to me?
It wouldn't because I would have left!

Thank you for your honest feedback. I am a different person than DM. I would have done things differently as well, but that's me.
I have zero points, and have not earned points in over three years now. However, I do think it best for the guidelines to be applied fairly and consistently regardless of the handle that posts the offending texts.
I can't be all over the board, and admittedly, I pay attention to what interests me. DM is a friend, so yes, I take interest in her posts. I saw something happen in this instance that I felt needed questioning, not only for DM but for the board as a whole. Yes, at times I am quite an idealist.
A broken record is annoying, even to my own ears. The squeaky wheel gets the oil...cliche cliche cliche...etc. however, like I said above, I am not embarrassed.
Despite the backs and forth and off topic temptations, I am here staying the course. It is that important to me: It is my hope that no matter who the poster is, that the guidelines be applied evenly; that is all.
The target audience was reached a long time ago. Like I said, I am done when others are done and only return to keep it on track.
P.S. Katrina. Why would I or should I be embarrassed? If I had a tail it would be wagging and down for the cause...and definitely NOT between my legs...lol...but thanks for your concern. No, really, thank you.
