I want to tell Max how to run his site and will continue to post until he does it my way.

MMario - the above are your words not mine. But so what? If they are my views - they are only my views.

As you know my concern is NOT how Max runs his website - my concern is only our forum.

I could equally say that the current Chief of the Mudcat Editing Team is effectively saying, by his public posting - I will continue to moan on about peace being impossible until Max finally changes our forum to members only.   

Perhaps you could tell our forum what the difference is. Except that one is supposed to be seen to be using their best efforts to make Max's currenly preferred posting policy work.
