First if I get banned for pointing out the hypocrisy of the sandbox please e-mail, me (see part one for e-mail address) and see why they Banned me, if you are willing to post it here
The last thread (part one) was closed without a valid reason. The DR posted this #3 - Disrespect to others, IN GENERAL, will be considered an item of low tolerance, especially when posting in our coed forums. Follow the Golden Rule and treat others as you wish to be treated yourself.This applies to fellow members as well as staff. We do not require that you have respect for us, but we do require that you treat us respectfully in the public forums. If you feel the need to vent, gripe, or blow off some steam regarding a staff member's action or decision, we ask that you keep it private. Email, RTM, or the PM system would be the appropriate avenue to take in such cases. In cases where you would like to request additional clarity about a staff decision, you are free to pursue an answer in either a public forum or private means of communication. If handled publicly, post your inquiry in a respectful manner.

and yet if you read the tread, you will see there is much worse being said in other threads and they are still open.
I wound also like to remind the moderator that #21 - ECCIE Staff will go to great lengths to avoid editing, deleting, or censoring our members posts or threads...unless absolutely necessary. I personally feel moderator showed much disrespect to the poster of this post by closing it. "Follow the Golden Rule and treat others as you wish to be treated yourself"
I will also point out there is no specific rule on reopening a closed post
I am not trying to be rude to the moderator, I am questing his judgment
