Er, Panzade, you seem to be assuming that Blatham has only one tool...whyever would that by your impression.? From what I've heard, Blatham is a remarkable man...you really should get up to New York and compare tool (s). LOL
Deb, I respect your view and, for the most part, agree with it;, but if the moderators are never questioned, as fine as they are--and I do think they are usually great at what they do--then there will be noone to point out that they might have taken a misstep. Of course we will never know why a decision was made and I accept that, but power, even the minute power that the moderators have, inevitalby corrupts IMHO--or at least leads to complacency. (And I don't want anyone to think that I'm calling them complacent)--Gads, it's so easy to dig a hole of too many words.

That's the statement I was responding to. Craven, I am not asking for a voice in any decisions made by the moderators. All I was expressing was my view of the atmosphere here, one that I believe results from no one talking about the things that go on. There is a feeling that it is taboo to discuss it.
Maybe you are damned if you do and damned if you don't. Sorry, you'll have to come to terms with the level of response you feel comfortable with. You have no reason to feel defensive. It's human nature to miss people and to wonder where they are and if they are OK. Maybe you could consider what Abuzz used to do. Put a notice in the banned person's profile that they are banned.
