Since I know this is towards me, since you obviously didn't like my post about DATY.... I will respond. Originally Posted by BrookeButtons

It's understandable that you would assume this thread was motivated by your post in the DATY thread, but it's just as likely that it was Lynn responding to what transpired in the Protocol thread. I'll let her speak to what her motivations truly were.

You're right, your post in the DATY thread was not a scolding in any way, it was simply a reminder that the original poster asked a question that seemed to be getting lost in the banter, and we'd do him a favor if we got things back on track. No harm done. So if Lynn was responding to your comment in that thread, she was off base, in my opinion.

But if she was responding to what occurred in the Protocol thread, then i tend to agree with her. The direction to get back on track was a bit more heavy handed in that thread....and i think there's a difference between a thread being purposely hijacked, and a thread naturally veering into a different direction - as Lynn alludes to. I would suspect that only a small minority of threads have no posts that veer off track from the original post. So if that's what inspired her to post, then your comments here are unfortunate.

Ultimately, being one who hates conflict, i hope the two of you can kiss and make up. And let us watch!

Although even in the DATY thread was still basically on topic as a discussion about DATY.. things will always steer in different directions as we all see things different and have different thoughts on a subject.

How will you learn anything new if you dont look from all sides? Im an outside the box thinker, a leader not a follower. Knowledge is power.

let alone its a forum not a high profile job or a classroom trying to get an A and being the teachers pet.

And I certainly wouldn't start this thread over 1 post by someone. Its the general tude of this board and I think it needed to be addressed.

It is our objective to keep each thread on topic as much as possible. When things get too much off-course, it is the collective responsibility of everyone, not just the Mods, to steer them back.

IMHO, this thread may be well-intentioned, but it can understandably be interpreted as unfriendly.
