Obviously not the entire group since some of us quite liked him and his posts.

I sincerely hope that TurquoiseB is never allowed to post here again. He is
toxic for the entire group and should have been removed a long time ago.

Gonna ask again, Doug: did you ban Turq for good or will you be restoring his
posting privileges at some point?

I looked at the activity log, and Turq is still subscribed; all Doug did was
kill his ability to post. Whereas, Rick booted *and* banned the one who shall
not be mentioned (I think the banned list prevents a person from even sending a
subscription request.) The only people I've given the boot are spammers, and I
don't regard them as worthy of any kind of explanation. But, in the case of
people who are actual participants, I think full disclosure is in order. In
Turq's case, the reason is apparent, but it has not been disclosed if this is
just a temporary time-out or permanent. The fact that Doug didn't actually
unsubscribe him suggests the possibility that it isn't permanent.
What sayest thou, Doug? Is Turq gone for good?

Thanks for posting this Alex. Perhaps Buck/Doug will share the rational here so
we can understand which of his interpretation of the previously never enforced
vague Yahoo guidelines Barry violated.
In the spirit of Barry's sense of humor here I think the only appropriate thing
to do now is to initiate a "dead pool" list of who is going to be next in the
the current purge.
1. Salyavin808 for his last brilliant, scathing indictment of Buck/Doug
2. Michael for his consistent efforts to put his finger in the eye of the
pompous powers that be in the movement.
3. Me for trying to focus my lens more and more precisely on what it is that I
object to in Buck/Doug's misuse of moderator power here. (I am speaking about
his threat to Barry for stating his opinion of David Lynch, not for getting
banned. Until he reveals it I don't know what his reasons were for that.)
Game on! Who will be next?

Subject: Alex, can you post a question to the forum for me?
It appears that Doug has gone ahead with his threats and has deleted my access
to Fairfield Life. I'm just wondering how he justifies doing this based on
supposedly "offending" posts of mine made back in May when on June 9th in post
#416493 he explicitly said:
Inmoderation at this point I feel “the past is a lesser state ofevolution” and
I am going forward with a clean slate on everyone and notone is on moderation
in any way from this point. I would only suggestin our going forward that folks
take the time to actually read theYahoo-groups guidelines if they want to
continue fluidly posting onFFL. We should appreciate your cooperative
collaboration on this. -JaiGuruYou!
Seems to me there is more than a little hypocrisy, double-dealing, and outright
dishonesty going on here, and since Doug has eliminated the possibility of me
bringing this question up to the group myself, I figured I'd ask you to do it
for me.
Thanks for everything. You have been more than fair in all of your dealings
with Fairfield Life and with the odd group of characters who have posted there
over the years. I wish that sense of fairness and honesty was equally present
in the newest moderator.
Barry...ooops, do I get in trouble for using my own real name? :-)
P.S. To everyone else, so long and thanks for all the fish...
