"arbitration@nerstrand.net" I guess that is the 'secret' email list, eh? (secret as in "archives are not world-readable")
I agree with you, Fred, but as I am demonstrating at the moment, if an arbiter's opinion is thought to be "incorrect", there will be immediate calls for his/her removal for thoughtcrime. A chilling effect might be seen.
That is nonsense. As I have replied in the correct thread:
1. I did not call for your removal 2. The reason I criticised you was that you were (you agreed) condescending towards others.
I feel that your concern of not wanting to get involved in every name-calling dispute is a valid one, and should be discussed. I asked you numerous times to give reasons for holding the views you do, but you declined to give them.
Your calling my criticisms against you an enforcement of "thoughtcrime" is rather ridiculous given the fact that I *want* to discuss the issue and you quite evidently don't.
Best, Sascha Noyes

I suggest that on any matter each arbitrator first state a conclusion such as accept or don't accept then a brief (or lengthy as it suits them) explanation of why.
