: This is the most thoughtful post I have read in a long time. I wish to 
: thank R Brown for the time and effort it took to write such a post, 
: including actually gathering examples from previous postings.

	read:  this is the biggest dog turd since my shelty got slammed 
by a semi.

: Yes, I do agree that an Acceptable Volunteer/employee Policy - my term 
: for it - is badly needed, more than AUP is. In fact, the most common 
: offenders have something to do with TFN one way or another (that includes 
: me), except for 2 or 3 users who actually on the long run disappeared. 

: bt351 problem has been raised before. He is one of the TFN volunteers 
: who while taking charge of the office changed his (I believe personal 
: account, not an official one) so as to cancel his name. This has raised 
: some questions in newsgroups, but unfortunately no official response. 
: Moreover, according to some posts, this same volunteer refuses to include 
: other volunteers in 'his area'. 

	re:  1.  the appropriate consultations were made.  this was a 
result of unending phonecalls at all hours of the day and night.  you 
would probably have never noted such (during your brief tenure) due to 
your inherent incompetence.
	2.  go to hell.
	3.  mses are chronically challenged dealing with a real os.  but 
they were invited, repeatedly (and the fact neither responded once before 
their email addresses hit the bit bucket says something for their 
interest level).

: This whole thread may have not come into light except for the obvious 
: reason that it could not be solved within the BoD mailing list, due to 
: the lack of defined rules of conduct. The recent resignation of Bill Chow 
: was due to the same reason apparently. 

	can you say "non sequiter"?

: Unless TFN volunteers, employees and board lead by example, there is no 
: hope in trying to force users to behave in newsgroups.

	your concept of "behaviour" behooves me.  
	it seems to be wrapped about some odd confluence of your beliefs 
and islamic law.
	certainly, tfn should not be dwelling in matters of what and 
what is not acceptable "behaviour".

	if that were the case, we could (collectively) be forced to 
accept the "polka deamons" as the one saving grace.

: Thank you again. I hope that your post will get the study it deserves.

	considering the anonymisation of the header and the lack of any real 
content (aside from soliliquisms), i hope it goes where it belongs.  ie.  
the bit bucket.
