Dena,

> I am unsure if you do or not not have a notification that has not been responded to. If you have an outstanding notification, could you post here, without posting the URL or giving any infomation as to who the author is, if the notification:

Dena: Yes, it does have to do with teh subject in this thread.
> B. If so, without posting the URL, in your opinion, if the notification was responded to, could any response be relevant to the aspects in this thread?Dena: Yes, it is relevant.
> C. If so, in your opiniion, does a significant time lag from the time that you notified the administration and the amount of time between a reply, have a factor in members thinking that it is good for the community as a whole for the time lag to exist?
Dena: It's been several days, and I've had no response. I do not believe that the time lag is good for the community -- why have a notification system if it's a moot point to use it?
> D. If it is Mr. Hsiung's philosophy that acting before a forest fire is part of his TOS here, what in your opinion could members here conclude if they knew what the post was? In other words, in your opinion, could there be a spread of what is in the notification because it remains outstanding for a significant time lag? If so, how, in your opinion, could that be good for the community as a whole or not good for the community as a whole?
Dena: The notification was for antiSemitism, that occurred a while ago, and which was allowed, and which is continuing to be allowed, setting a precedence for others to do the same sort of thing. The atmostphere is thus conducive for more antiSemitism. It was, admittedly, a subtle antiSemitic message, but that's always how such things start, and when allowed to remain, unreprimanded, it grows, for that's the very nature of genophobia. If we don't learn from history, we're doomed to repeat it. When we say it's not happening, we foster it to continue to happen.Shalom, Dena
