It is not true that Lizzie is the only one being put in pre mod, or banned, it is also not true that some of the players were not chided either by the F&A host or by fellow participants.

It strikes me that going from pre-mod, to a ban for the rest of the week and then to be given unfettered access the following week is at either lenient or incomprehensible.

Finally, don't go on about "making lists about songs for cremations". There are some raw nerves that could be touched here. One of the most touching cremations I have ever been to was of a person who organised a folk club, was the driving force behind it, gave advice and lessons to people keen to learn an instrument and gave many unkown artists a break. His death was sudden and unexpected and in closing days left his treasured instruments to several people in the club, left legacies to protect the future of the club and others that he loved visiting and another to an organisation that is devoted to helping musicians improve so that a young person can be sponsored. His secular funeral included songs by his close friends from the club and recordings of him playing his beloved blues and rag and in the evening a session/wake to celebrate his life.

When I joined the F&A board, I supported and respected your posts despite not sharing your tastes, I even supported you in private with those who you consider your detractors. However, despite the fact you got at times an unfair ride, it was not wise to try and fight fire with fire or to be as equally sarcastic or cynical, it just sparked further trouble. As I said earlier, loyalty and support can wear thin and in the end I grew too tired of your bickering and the bickering of others. The prospect of your return will certainly mean that my decision to no longer participate in a board that once was fun and informative will hold.
