In the first case the members would complain that mods have special rights in terms of speech and in the letter case, members could insult eachother and then claim it was a joke.
    Bollox. I've learned some things in the meantime (and Prole's post confirmed it), and it had nothing to do with that. We've allowed far worse before and since with no consequences. I can't even blame ACIN any more. If it hadn't been him, it would've been something else.

    In one single stroke of pettiness, we were robbed of BQ, Louis and Adrian, certainly among our best and brightest. It's a disgrace and someone should at least be a man and own up to it instead of hiding behind "we don't want to reveal anything out of respect to them".

    Just a question, do you think it is appropriate to discuss some of the more private interactions with members (like Louis)..
    1) without their their permission.
    2) in circumstances they cannot refute, deny or defend statements.

    Because honestly, in my opinion, that is a can of worms that shouldn't be opened.
