Folks, you may all do as you choose. It is my opinion that responding to Roger only feeds what he is after here. If you want to act in an "enabling" fashion, then by all means go on and continue the dialogue on the same old load of shite. If you are tired of this, then simply quit responding.

Roger, please note that no one has shut down your thread, even though it is possible to do so. Please...........ramble on as long as you feel like doing so. I hope it is to an empty room.

A click on the following link http://www.mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=66176#1098834 will demonstrate that (despite the reference that it was possible to do so - but that no one had shut it down) you will not be able to contribute to it – as it was also closed.

If it is really true – that expressing an honest and reasoned opinion on the forum will only result in abuse (from a few). And that this is somehow he fault of the person who posted that opinion – then it is a very sad end to a very fine attempt at an open public discussion forum.

I don't accept that it is (yet) true and I will carry on contributing until it is finally true. In the hope that those who would wish to deny to other people - the freedom that they take as a right and those who support this and who plainly do not like Max's concept – go away and leave the rest of us in peace. To judge for ourselves what we choose to respond to – or ignore.
