Once again, I’ll apologize for my excessive posts. I don’t want to stir this all up again but, I have a suggestion that I think is important to put out here: if there are unwritten rules about the number of posts or their content, someone on this board has an OBLIGATION to inform the person. You can’t hold someone responsible for breaking rules they did not know existed! Here’s a chance to be a part of a solution and not a part of a problem...
I had no idea that DJ or anyone else had to manually clean up the board. And, from the numbers and contents or other posts, I certainly didn’t think I was out of line. It never dawned on me that excessive posts – be they frivolous, jovial, or serious, would push others off the board sooner than maybe they should be. There were a lot of hurt feelings because of this incident and it was all so unnecessary…
I would hate to see this happen to another “newbie” who is unaware….
That’s it for me today. This post is made in the spirit of helping…
