It's obvious the AMA forum doesn't tolerate criticizing the AMA (a). So why go there and do it? I haven't ever even visited the AMA forum, partly because RCU gives me all the information I need and partly because of the negative comments I've seen here about it. If the forum is no good, then just don't go to it.(b)
a. I can see stopping folks from saying ~"
AMA is bad", but that is different from saying ~"
AMA is doing XYZ wrong and we in the AMA need to fix that". Its hard to say how much better xerox is for AMA than carbon paper, without hurting carbon paper folks feelings and getting banned by carbon paper faction of AMA. Why label attempts to get Muncie to switch to xerox as
AntiAMA and '
bashing' ama's use of carbonpaper
b. The problem is, the AMA forum is OUR forum... the folks running a bad forum is us members, via muncie, via the guys doing all the deleting and banning. Its not a matter of saying some untouchable 'they' needs to fix 'their' board, its that WE need to fix OUR board
How canone pass judgement unless you have direct and accurate knowledge of what was posted and for what reason the ban was issued? If the forum rules were broken then perhaps a ban was in order. That occurs on every forum site including this one.
Maybe Hoss would like to repost ver batim here, then we could discuss the pros and cons of their descision based on facts. Otherwise it's justmore trolling for some Anti-AMA forum hubris.
