GUEST,Roger Gall former mudcatter Members Versus Guests and Noms de Plume (144* d) RE: Members Versus Guests and Noms de Plume 24 Apr 07


The following was what I posted (in a thread that is now closed)

Dear Max

I have been a long time member of this forum and I remain a great supporter of its original aims and ethos.

You have publicly made it known you no longer wish me to remain a contributor but have not blocked my contribuions or suspended my membership.

And as I consider (unlike some others) I have done nothing to justify this public judgement - I have continued to try and post as I have done for many years.

My concern has been that in supporting our forum, as I have always done, that I am now expected support many actions undertaken - it is claimed in the name of enabling resonable discussion. I feel that I cannot.

I have recently had many of my posts 'siently deleted' and have just recieved a Personal Message warning me that - If I wish to continue using Mudcat for discussions of licensing and music and other matters, that I must refrain from certain others.

I find this condition on my posting alone totally unacceptable - so can you please retract this warning and ensure that no more of my posts on any subject are deleted and restore those that have been or at least indicate to posters where such action has been imposed?

As I have every intention of coninuing to try posting all of my views - if you are not prepared to do as I request - can you please suspend my membership?


NOTE
At no point have I requested that contributions posted under the name The Shambles should be replaced with Roger Gall former mudcatter.

If this is normal under these circumstances then any guest thinking of becoming a member should be made aware of it.

If it is not normal, then perhaps the reasons behind why it has happened in this case need to be explained?

    OK. That's it. There will be no discussions of Mudcat editing policy or Mudcat policy in general until after after the first of May. None whatsoever. This a music forum. Go talk about music.
