There appear to be those on this thread who believe that it’s their "job" to decide who should, or shouldn’t, contribute to this thread, or, for that matter, to remain on this thread, based on the content of what they’ve had to say.
I would respectfully suggest to those individuals, and in my opinion, Carl Worth is one of them, that it is NOT his place to tell others to "take (whatever) elsewhere". This thread is not the "property" of any one individual. We ALL have a right to have our say.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but, to the best of my knowledge, it is up to the thread’s Moderator to decide as to whether or not any individual is operating, or discoursing, within the "Rules" of this thread.
By all means, if Carl Worth, or anyone else, does not agree with the comments or sentiments as expressed by anyone else, then he/she is perfectly entitled to express their opinion in that regard. But, apart from the Moderator, I don’t believe it is anyone else’s place to tell others that they must "go somewhere else", or "get out of any particular kitchen" etc.. etc..
Rest assured, Carl, and whoever else, I’m very certain that each and everyone of us is more than capable of deciding, for ourselves, as to whether or not we wish to remain and contribute to this thread. We certainly don’t need to be informed by any third party (excluding the Moderator) in that regard.
As you quite rightly say, Carl, an individual can put another on "Ignore". Maybe you should take heed of your own advice should you find someone else’s comments not to your liking. |
