This is in response to my rejection of two emails, both of which I considered to contain personal attacks because they called various administrators 'abusive' etc. What are the thoughts of subscribers to the list on this? What would the appropriate course of action have been?
The mods of this list are conservative in their interpretation, allowing people the benefit of the doubt long after some of us have written them off as a bad job. I join the small chorus backing your sound judgment on this.
For my money, a properly stated case against an admin from an editor with a history and a decent reputation is never a problem. The vast majority of complaints about admin behaviour are generic "rouge admin abuse" crap and can safely be ignored, especially if they can't bring themselves to state it in a civil manner. Sounds like this lot fails on both levels.
