Indeed. But if someone in a position of trust does a bad thing, you have to speak up. Simple as that.Marya wrote:....just thought I'd remind Surrealist of this thread.
I wouldn't blame Bob if he gave up on the Forum, considering the current criticisms that are being posted , but I sincerely hope he continues to give so much of his own time to support this site .
It can be diificult to be a volunteer like Bob. Many of us are benefitting from his efforts and without him this place would either not exist or be a lesser place. He ought to be appreciated.
However, a balance has to be struck. Bob has stated that, although he has been challenged, he won't go to any great lengths to justify his actions. He doesn't have to, all he need do, is point out the site rule that vindicates his recent decision to delete the thread/post. If he can't, it places him above the law and in my view diminishes the POF.
This does not mean that Bob should be vilified. It is unlikely Bob is an experienced site administrator and he is on a learning curve. Everyone makes mistakes. The best thing to do is acknowledge ones mistakes,it is likely everyone shall forgive and forget.
