Let's get something straight. You did NOT remove one of my posts. You did not warn "me" about anything. [b]I didn't post anything at all, (let alone anything offensive), to that first thread! My only post was the one where I asked why you were treating this thread differently than you treat other threads.[/b] I was objecting to the censorhip in general, not to some censorship of ME, because that did not happen. I essentially saw a thread where you were telling people they could only respond within very specific parameters and admonishing others who were taking the husband's POV. I simply advocated that this was legitimate and germane to the conversation, and made the MIL example where others might conceivably challenge the OP to think outside her question. Subsequently, I discussed how I've learned a lot from answers to questions I didn't actually ask. Nothing in that was offensive or "zealot" like.

There is a basic inconsistency in the two bolded sentences above. Either you "didn't post anything at all" or you posted a message that "asked why you were treating this thread differently". Only one of those could be true. If you indeed posted a message challenging me about my "censorship", then that post would have been off topic and in contradiction to the two posts of mine in that thread. It doesn't really matter whether your issue was medicine or censorship. Either way, if you posted as you suggest, you ignored both the original poster's desire and my explicit warnings. Maybe that does not make you a zealot, but it doesn't make you pretty uncooperative.

It is a pretty frequent occurrence that a poster suddenly finds a case of my acting inconsistently and, for some reason, feels the need to turn it into a federal case. Having gone through this several times, I have very little patience for it. If you are expecting total, 100% consistency, you are in the wrong place. As I have previously said, the other thread was reported to me. I was specifically asked to keep an eye on it based on the likelihood that it would turn into another unproductive dustup. If/when you start a mother-in-law thread and you want me to keep an eye on it, please let me know. If I fail to perform the duties of a moderator at that time, you can then complain about my inconsistency.
