I know this is a complete waste of time, but, here goes ...

(1)The circumstance of their allegence to AwadTalk imbues the long established posters with a sense of propiertorship that has restricted the free expression of ideas that was obviously envisioned by Anu from the start.

Give me an example of where and how this is happened, and please don't go all Mormon on me and take it out of context.

(2) Although most of the group of longtime posters here have an alternate chat site to discuss matters of this board, they have in the past used that site as a mattter of course to inhibit the growth of the AwadTalk forum.

Again, please give me an example which proves that "we" have used the "alternate chat site" to "inhibit the growth of the AwadTalk forum". I will find your response MOST interesting ...

(3) Insults, slander, mockery, and condescension are the verbal tools that are used in concert by the self-anointed establishment here. This single fact accounts for the King's measure of the lack of growth of this board; once a most promising Worldwide word forum.

Yes, I agree. Here's an example of just what you're talking about:

"Pull up your dress, maverick. Say first what keiva has said that caused you to lose your aplomb.
Once I thought you to be the epitome of English culture.
Today I think you are a rude joke.
What? You call a person a "foul pesilental little maggot"?

Cite your reasoning, limey, or forever remain a clever jerk.

Milo."


A forthcoming petition will suggest a set of words that will stand as a covenant between those who are ruled and those who enforce the rules. Precise and considered words which clearly outline acceptable and non-acceptable conduct will protect everyone here from the intrusion of the unruly.

Who enforces what rules? Again, give specific examples. As far as I'm aware NO ONE enforces rules here, even when they should be specified and enforced, and that someone is Anu, who chooses not to. Although Jackie has some administration rights, I'm not aware of her ever flexing her "muscles". I am prepared to stand corrected, however, if you can demonstrate that she has done so. There are no other rule-givers or enforcers as far as I'm aware, although there are certainly people who post here who would seem to be keen to act as enforcers.
