Thread Name: HI Max: What about Shambles requests?
Subject: RE: HI Max: What about Shambles requests?
I see the evidence of others who have had their thread titles changed: some with consultation and others without. For the most part, they seem to think that the changes were minor and for the better. I believe you may be unique in being the only one who complains interminably.

Do you also judge that I may also be unique in the assumptions – judgements and editing treatment that I receive at the hands of our anonymous volunteer fellow posters? Jerry you didn't answer the following.

Jerry - Are you saying that this special treatment is reserved for me only? And if so - despite the rather hollow claims by them for impartiality - this special imposition by our anonymous volunteer fellow posters on the three of my thread titles detailed and supposedly imposed only for 'clarification' in isolation - is perfectly acceptable and not personally motivated?

If you think such imposition (for clarity only) is acceptable on my threads titles alone - why would anyone expect you (or anyone else) to view imposition upon their thread titles any differently?

We have privileges in here, not rights.

I assume that you accept that the above applies to all of us? Perhaps you would accept that some do think they are now more privileged than others? Or do you also think that the ability to impose judgement upon the words of your fellow posters to be a 'minimal' ability?

Do you accept that there is a basic and traditional right on our forum - to expect that the words of our contributions to appear as posted – unless we first agree to any change - or unless the post is an abusive personal attack – racist etc.
