ayuda,
You wrote,[...it is counter productive to the researcher when people use {name calling}.
The situation that caused a thread here was about that Dr. Bob [allowed, innitually] {name calling} in the form of anti-Semitic language being used. Posters were outraged that Dr. Bob allowed the {name calling}, such as [greedy jew], and Dr. Bob at first wrote that he would allow the [racist language] for spacific cause of his own. The posters were still outraged and wanted the poster that used the anti-Semitic language to be santioned. Dr.Bob , then, warned the poster to post in a non-racist manner.
I agree that racist language should not be permitted to be posted here, and I objected to that poster and to othere here that posted that type of language. Are you saying, that when you wrote,[...I am perplexed by those people that do not agree with Dr. Bob's moderation, and submit posts criticizing him. They have the choice of just not reading this board ever again, and why they insist on being troublemakers instead is beyond me,...], that you consider those that object to the way Dr. Bob moderates the board, in respect to him allowing, innitually, anti-Semitic language to be posted here, to be {troublemakers}? If so, could you clarify why you consider Dr. Bob's innitual allowing of anti-Semitic language to be permissible when you wrote that you ,[...notified the FCC about sites that allowed,({filthy} and [hatefull]) language?
If you could, then I could have a better understanding of what you have written and be better able to respond to it accordingly.
