Sorry Mooman - I will just refer you to the evidence.

The Memorial Thread

The above is an example of a volunteer taking editing action without the correct reporting procedure. According to Joe – they are/were supposed to contact him first. Without the poster's knowledge or permission some selected (non abusive) posts were taken from this thread on the main forum where the thread was posted and place in a new thread. This was done only one the personal value judgement of the volunteer concern and Joe later stated – that he did not agree with the action – but it was too late to change. I think Kevin expressed an opinion in this thread that he also considered this to be wrong?

Now mistakes happen but the lessons were not learned and a short while later persons unknown closed the following thread – for reasons unknown Guest Postings. I received a PM from Joe again stating that he did not agree with the action and that there had again been confusion and yet another break-down of the reporting procedure. This time the thread was re-opened.
