-=> Quoting Rod Speed to John Tserkezis <=-

Hello Rod,

 JT> Do you remember which echo it appeared in?

 RS> Nope, but it must have been either LOCUSER, LOCSYSOP or AVT.
 RS> I'll check my netmails and email, there has been some of that.
 
 JT> If it's in zone3sysop or R54sysop, I can go back to have a look.

 RS> Nar, definitely not either of those, havent been reading those lately.
 
 Paul told me, it was a crosspost from zone3_sysop, and paul had tagged his
comment on the end of it, that reply was only posted in locsysop.

 JT> I think he's gone too far now to start
 JT> moderating. If he starts now it will look bad.

 RS> I didnt mean that. His comment about thinking that an excommunication
 RS> of Paul because of his behaviour in Z3_Sysop, stank, was just a 'I
 RS> hope it never comes to that when you can just twitlist etc' type
 RS> comment. 

 Yes it was, but I'll have a look for more from DN, since DM did say he had
DN's backing on the excommunication.

 RS> Sure, that bit seems pretty clear. Corse I wouldnt put
 RS> it past More to deliberately tell flagrant lies either.
 
 JT> They are not lies, really.

 RS> I meant that he had prior approval from Nugent to 'suspend' Paul.

 Yep, and as it turns out, it might be a lie after all, as above I'll check
out public comment on it, and see what it turns out.
 
 JT> As matter of fact, I've read about Hitler in my encyclopedia,
 JT> (just dusted them off) and hey!  How about that?! Hitler
 JT> could in fact have complied with P4 if he wanted to as well.

 RS> Hitler didnt bother too much about the legalitys. He just
 RS> rocked up and shot Rhome and his bum buddys stone dead and just
 RS> waffled on about how it was the only viable course of action.

 Sorta like what David More did...
 
 JT> So we need a new policy then eh?  Ok first we need
 JT> an IC to oversee the situation, but wait- there is
 JT> no IC?  Gee that's too bad, can't change it then.

 RS> It never got changed even when there WAS an IC anyway.

 Powermongers live.  I'm starting to care less and less.
