>To me, that implies that Babble does not have good administration. I realize that many people believe that to be true, but I think it's got very different administration -- for good and ill.
I've been disappointed by some actions on some of those other sites, and I've been pretty outraged by some of them, too. None of them are perfect, and I think a lot of people would disagree with the means used to shut down discussions like the ones in question here.
The whole online community thing is still new enough that we're all feeling our way along, still trying to figure out what works best. Dr Bob has chosen one way to try, other sites have tried other ways. Here at Babble, there's a fair amount of evolution regarding rules, which I consider a good thing.
But what I think doesn't matter -- I just wanted to ask if we could address this as "Different Administration" rather than "Good Administration," or even "Better Administration." Just to, you know, keep things civil?
