I linked this post earlier today in the Houston Forums and an Admin decided I was off-topic — lol, the thread was about "danger" and "threats" and where has everyone (notable members) gone. I'm a Houston member, a San Antonio member, an Austin member, a Dallas member, an ECCIE member — I post in all five forums. I've hobbied across the state. But the Admin didn't treat me as a forum member. He treated me as an outsider showing up with an outsider's problem
I suspect my post made the Admin uncomfortable. But I don't know why. Isn't part of his job to keep this place safe for the all of us? Shouldn't anything approaching a threat be taken very seriously? Extra seriously? Even if the threat originated in another city's forum, it is now in front of you. Why not address it?
"A name can be put to who you are"
That's the money quote. That's not sinister? That's not a threat? That type of comment should be allowed?
Maybe I'm wrong. Tell me what you think. Mods and Admins and Members, please weigh in.
