I'm a bit disturbed by what I consider a bit of a 'witch hunt/outing' (my term) by some TB & FT members who are not happy w/ a TB member (a TB member who
HAS participated
many times on public TB forum in the past). Yes, the accusers do the generic thing to cover themselves
, but it's not hard to read between the lines.
Please note this is not directed towards the post above mine! I've been thinking it for a while on both private & TB forum.
* Disclosure: This is my take & does
not represent any other TB members.
TB members are required to participate in private TB forum. Technically they're not on public, but quite frankly most do & have over the years.
But this recent 'pissing war' to me quite frankly is distasteful, and I also have to wonder if the TB member being dissed (who has participated a LOT before the last month) is saying screw it, I'll wait 'til they get over their crap & then get back to bizness. Note I have no way of knowing if that's their thought nor would I say it's a method I would choose, but I also kind of get it.
I would say to
both TB & FT members -
if you have a problem w/ a particular TB member, PM them and/or the Community Director.
I'd rather see TB subjects actually be on something that serves the better good of FT in terms of forums, wikipedia, etc, but that's just my 2 cents (which I think in the UK/Europe is minus 2 cents 
).
PS - It goes w/o saying that FT/TB members never have to worry about what I say/think. I've always engaged/responded to everyone.
Cheers.
