DS>> I just responded to your question. I, also, am just pointing

DS>You have no problems now Mr Kemp......I am not here to please you. I
DS>think this echo is not the right one for you.
No, I'm just not right for YOU. You can't compete in the world of ideas.
Truth is obviously not something you believe in.
As I stated before...YOU asked the question in regard to your shutting 
down this echo, or your quitting it. I just replied. Too bad you can't 
stomach an opinion that you asked for.
DS> I am asking that you take yourself and your opinions elsewhere.
O.K. But considering that you never even gave a first warning...it is 
obvious that your abilities (or lack thereof) as a moderator are again 
in evidence.
So, it seems I am being kicked off for being correct in my initial 
contention.
DS> YOu see I DO ask and request people to stop  posting as I did 
DS>several times to the flamers.  The angry post you saw from me  was 
DS>after repeated requests ignored.
Well, you cut peoples feeds after you give them a couple OFFICIAL 
warnings. The way someone knows it is official is to put this in the 
body of the warning post:
Dia Spriggs
Moderator AltMed
But then, I've informed you of this before. It's standard FIDO 
etiquette. You know, "this is your first warning", "this is your second 
warning", "you are excluded from posting to this echo for 90 days" etc. 
Maybe you should lurk on some other echoes and see how it is properly 
done. Or, ask some of moderators what proper and reasonable moderation 
entails.
DS>  So, now I am calmly, quietly asking you to move on to
DS>another echo and as you so aptly put it that all I had to do was
DS>request the flaming and arguing and bickering and name calling to 
DS>stop and it would have ceased immediately.
Well, I for one was never asked or warned directly. But then, I wasn't 
the one that was the cause of the flames...Jane was. Again, a more 
effective and reasonable method would have been to officially warn HER.
DS> Don't know what planet you're from
The planet were people speak the truth, and the planet were everyone is 
allowed to do so.
DS> but that  isn't the case with people that thing" Oh that Can't 
DS>pertain to ME". 
Of course it pertains to me...IF it pertains it to me. I DID stop 
posting on the MJ thread when you said to stop. I even asked Jane to 
stop insulting me. Something YOU didn't do.
Don't blame me for your ineffectiveness as a moderator.
DS> So now I've asked, I expect you to move on, out of the echo with no 
DS> further posts, arguements or comments. 
That's fine. It would be nice to know what the offense I am getting 
booted for is. It can't be flaming, because I didn't flame you. I 
responded with facts as I see them. It can't be the use of "crude 
words", because I didn't use any. It can't be for being off topic, 
because you started the thread. So, it must be because you just didn't 
want to hear anything but your already held opinion repeated back to 
you. Sorry, I'm not a puppet.
Again, you have just illustrated the EXACT behaviors that I was pointing
out. You are arbitrary, illogical, and totally unqualified to moderate 
this echo. You haven't the slightest idea of how to do so in a 
reasonable fashion.
Since you just validated my contention. The fact is...you are kicking me
off for telling the truth AND replying to YOUR post in an honest manner.
Shame on you.
