stribe... You surprise me. You are in fact a pretty fair guy with principles. You make number 3. Bill Jackson's post #26665 was number 1, and combjelly's post #26678 was number 2.

Taunting Mani was never my intention. Criticism was. It has always been a matter of principle. If you go back and check I very rarely posted on Mani's thread. I realized from the beginning it was a different kind of board, unlike this one. Here, we can say and do dirfferently, just as we can on the SI Rambus board. Without these little diversions in topic, and a little taunt here and there, would make any board extremely boring. Perhaps this is why you, tejek, and Scumbria spend more time here, than you do on the Moderated board.

If one starts a new board, and wants to moderate it, then he should be flexible and understanding. Example: I had posted on SI Rambus that I had been terminated. I sent Mani a email. I was angry for being terminated for no reason and wanted to know why. Mani said he didn't terminate me and ignored my post because I used the F word.. Well I DIDN'T KNOW I wasn't terminated by him, but I WAS in fact terminated. I had no idea it was in error, a glitch. But Mani knew, and he should have figured something was wrong and emailed me back with a big F/U and an explanation. This is what a moderator is supposed to do. As I said to Mani in my last post, I considered the matter closed. Then I was terminated for the second time. Now I considered it open again.. just a matter of principle. Enough said.

Scripe, others... Read this. Its beyond me. Some parts look good for Rambus and some not.Its New from ACE'S Hardware...
