I suppose xenophobic and racist posts, by a poster hiding behind another user name, that are then then hidden and protected by those who moderate this board tend to "stick" in my craw. If that is a symptom of my education, I am okay with it.

ETA - I've been traveling for my job - sorry I didn't respond sooner to your insightful post.


If you don't like how the board is moderated then might I suggest you stick to boards where they are moderated to your taste?

I am of the opinion that some people read far to much into the incident that occurred. If you expect the worst of people, that's what you will get. And sometimes, some posters here are just looking for any excuse to latch onto something and make a much bigger deal out of it that it really is....It's a freaking public anonymous message board!

The biggest "symptom" of your education sometimes comes across as you being condescending and snotty....of course that's just my opinion.
