[QUOTE="Willie the Duck, post: 9641927, member: 6799660"] Must preserve the sanctity of the thread, right? ;) At the same time, if it's not protectionist feelings but instead some kind of [I]'hey, we were having a moment here'[/I] kind of situation, I can totally get the frustration. But at the end of the day it is making demands of other people and their actions in a public fora. So, yeah, you really can't demand anything or it's absence barring tragedy-of-the-commons type issues like threadcrapping, trolling, or general abusiveness. Interestingly, this is almost verbatim the first draft of the post you are responding to. We may be mutually 'what's up with them?'-ing. How about a Cheers-esque 'Norm!,' but with the inflection of a Seinfeld 'Newman!'? With Kari Dziedzic stepping down suddenly (for the public) and passing away last year, I was just revisited the harassment controversy that sent Green packing to Dallas with the team in tow.
