The CS Forum has been dead for years. Like most people I seldom even bothered to look at it, let alone post.
When the 1st discussion thread for years came up (eligibility) I thought I would chip in.
What is weird is how the moderators, including the CS President, have tried to shut the discussion down, resorting to threats and personal attacks on more than 1 occasion. Not directed at me, other than a few sarcasm fails, and anyway from experience on other sites I have learned not to get too bothered about what gets posted on them about or to me.
But if the CS Forum is ever going to be more than a waste of space I suggest the culprits do the following
1) take 5 minutes to look back through your posts on that thread and see if you can take any learning points about your style
2) in future pause a minute before typing emotional outbursts
Perhaps killing any discussion was exactly the objective, in which case well done guys.
If you could be as kind as to indicate where I have tried to close down discussion I would appreciate it. I have not been around for most of the discussion as I was busy arbiting in Berlin and only recently entered the fray with a rather lively debate with Walter.
