Matthew,
I have come to the end of this ridiculous rubbish. Whether or not it weakens
my argument or not, I stand by this remark, because anonymity is a very
serious thing where internet is concerned, and the whole debacle is
deserving of something cheap anyway, specifically to have it hit home to
those who pretend to know what moderation means, and what could be at stake
here - and that is namely: who to allow in! I know it`s difficult, but at
present there is far too much looseness.
Tony W.
