I discussed this with Bruce this morning, and in no way did he say to me that he thought I abused any authority. He said he thought that MM was wrong to be calling people out. I have expressed my view to Bruce about certain posters on this forum; however, he is the forum owner and as such, it's up to him to make decisions about forum adminstrators. I have had limited forum administrator abilities for several years. I have rarely used them, except when I felt someone was making a personal attack on me. I never asked to be a forum administrator, so I'm certainly not going to complain about not being one. Bruce does not routinely monitor any of the forums, but will review situations if they are brought to his attention. In my experience, he has usually deleted the posts that anyone complains about. He doesn't "censor" the forum. I don't think I am/have been the only administrator on this forum. So you may want to ask MM or Bruce who the others are.

I will no longer be a part of this forum. It is not sour grapes, nor is it because I'm not a forum administrator anymore, although I'm sure that several people on here will have quite a bit to say on the subject, and some will celebrate my departure. I'm okay with that. For some time, I have thought that the level of discourse on this particular forum is reflective of the hate and discontent that seems to be pervasive in our society right now. As personal attacks have become part and parcel of the political landscape, so seems to follow the discussions on this board. And I am committed to promoting civility on a day to day basis in my personal life because I think it is important to treat others with respect and dignity.

With my best wishes.
