Hi Bill,

Thanks for helping to clear all this Simon business up. Yours has been the most clear, informative, and satisfactory (imo) post from any mod yet. No slag to any other mod, I realise that you all must have had personal ties w/ Simon to varying degrees, that may have inhibited your ability to respond objectively.

I have a suggestion as this sort of rogue behavior still sounds possible currently. I've never been a mod anywhere and this is the first forum I've ever been a member of, so I'm not sure about the logistics of this suggestion.

I suggest that in order for any mod to be able to delete an entire thread, they should have to check w/ at least one other mod (it seems like there are always a few mods on at any moment anyway). I realise this could be tedious, but as we have seen much fervor in the wake of Simon's departure, it may have prevented some of the controversy.

Just my 2 cents anyway.

Oh and welcome (back?) Mr. Deacon. Great post. I especially liked the last bit.

Agreed. The key to solving any problem (imo) is first having a clear mind and thus, a more accurate perception of the problem.

I just enjoyed some flowers, creatures, and even a valley today.

Mountains and meadows to follow soon enough.
