Hi

You well deserve the praise you continue to receive from this great NOT Board.

I've been away most of today, and returned to find a shocking number of posts that were reported as VIOLATIONS! I could not believe it because most all of these posts in question seemed to be pleasant and informative! A post of mine recently ,which was meant as a total joke, was also reported as a violation!

I have been Long NOT since Dec. 06 with the news of Windfall ,and I will be long NOT until the day Richard sells DE and spins off Windfall!

However, I'm a little concerned that something has changed ,and the honest discussion of this Board is being noticeably disturbed by some newly arrived posters. All these reported violations of innocent posts are disrupting a meaningful commentary. I feel that there is a new wave of over regulation and deletion of posts that is bothersome.

I want to be able to post honest thoughts and if they are positive , which more then likely they will be, I hope the new Bashers here will not be allowed to charge " violation'' indiscriminately to my posts or others who offer differing view points.

Your job is difficult to maintain decorum here. ...I truly hope we can remain free spirited here , but I'm a little leery..............

Could you comment , please.
