A few thank you's revisited

[Mad Russian]

PMs are Private Messages, and as such, I think, like email, most people expect a certain amount of privacy extended to the contents. For my part, I have extended to you Steve, the courtesy to consider any PMs and emails we may exchange as public knowledge. I did this because you have stated you have issues with the Staff of this web site and the use of PMs. My offer to you is one on my part, and is not an extension that covers anyone other than me.

For my two cents though, I would not be a member of a website if I felt I could not interact with the Staff in trust and good faith. To state so publicly to a person who has, I think, never actually exchanged a PM or email with you, is highly insulting to me personally.

Seems like alot of folks on this site get highly insulted.

Edit: I removed a comment that was not about rules interpretation or clarification. SG

I'm not sure why you feel insulted that I don't trust the management after my past experiences with them here. I'm not sure why you think it best to have private conversations about club rules and regulations.

I never intended on insulting you. Just stating that I don't trust the PM system where the officers of this website are concerned.
I was being truthful not trying to be insulting. To go into reasons why I feel what way would be just about ancient history for most and not really worth the time it takes to put it down. That still doesn't change how I feel about it.

The fact that a member can be banned for PM content and not bring up the PM in their own defense....although I'm thinking if you get banned you have no recourse anyway....seems a bit out of place for a trust issue on the member whose at risk.

You're not at risk for anything you put in a PM...but I am and that is supposed to make me feel secure in any communications we have? You are the one that put me on probatation for simply wanting the club to look at the activities of one of the Mods on the site. An acitivity that everyone agreed had been done by club procedure. Sorry, again that doesn't make me feel all that comfortable with private conversations.

The fact that the rules are Mod specific, that the Mod determines what is, and isn't, an offense makes it member beware in the first place.

If you are just a gamer here GREAT. You will never have an issue.

Only those that ever post to the boards and have an opinion contrary to the Mods opinion are in danger of being banned or censored.

At the end of the day, the Blitz will be run however you want it to be. Those that appreciate that will stay. Those that don't will move to other CM sites.

Good Hunting.
