Intaglio and trumad were flagged. Shouldn't the same standards apply to everyone? You can't even see your double standards. There's a lot of outrage here when a post like Bennyboy's gets left by a jury, yet you told bluesbassman that pretty much anything posted by the members here was acceptable as long as a jury lets it stand. I've seen some pretty ugly stuff posted in this group, followed by high fives.
We are a self policing community. If you find a type of behavior unacceptable, it should be unacceptable here, as well. By allowing bad behavior here, it helps lower the bar of community standards. If you want those standards to change, I would suggest you start at home.

Yes. Kudos to Skinner. Too little and maybe too late but, Finally ... Skinner is taking a stand.

I'm glad to see no one came to his rescue in that thread, but still he remains...

I love the history of a word and how words can change over time and morph into the exact opposite
