> †So just to make sure I understand what you're suggesting....you think that a deputy's freedom to post should be limited or restricted in some way? In other words, someone who volunteers their time for no compensation while being subject to increased criticism should have their very posting freedom, that same freedom the other members enjoy and that the deputy enjoyed before volunteering to help out the site those same members are able to post freely at, they should have some sort of posting restriction?
So if someone posts something uncivil and that post needs addressing by a deputy, that situation someone else created should automatically preclude said deputy from posting on that thread/subject? Now that could represent a potential conflict of interest. Hmmmm, what's more important? Doing the job I volunteered to do? Or expressing my thoughts about something that interests me? Aw shucks. I'll just let this one go so I can say something, even if it's a pretty straightforward call on the civility of the post. Um, yeah.
So do I have this right? You're for limiting the posting freedom of deputies?
