TheBanyanTree: Death of 2006/Roger

[Sharon Mack]

Huh??  You guys are a 'they' because I don't agree with you, but I will
honor the decision.  And I have nothing whatsoever to so with the decisions.
As a member it is up to me to obey, that's all, or I can leave if I so
desire.  I do not desire.  The decisions are made by the leaders and not by
the community.  The moderators made those decisions, not I.  I will respect
their positions and their rules and follow them.

Not 'they', Sharon, but 'we'.

The Banyan Tree is an internet community of which we are all members. 
When any of us write anything at all for the Tree we should be doing so 
with holistic respect - that is, respect for all Tree members, not just 
those who we expect  to agree with us. Also I emphatically disagree with 
the contention that warning people off in the subject line will improve 
the Tree's interactivity which is what has been implied in a previous 
post - in fact it will do just the opposite.

TBT has a special sweet flavour which has developed over a decade - 
let's not ruin it with a careless handful of consequential salt!
