I've certainly been put in my place when I've stepped out of line here, both by Dr. Bob and by a few of the regulars. In the short run it sometimes doesn't feel all that great, but in the long run I appreciate both their concern and the "course correction" that it offers me.
For what it's worth, I think james' post was out of line too, and I suspect that if Dr. Bob had spotted it early on, he might have intervened. On the other hand, several "regulars" IMMEDIATELY stepped in with genuine concern for james and scorn for the tone of the post. To me, that shows that this community is working.
It's hard to think of anyone more beloved, appreciated and respected here than Cam W., whose input is constantly sought -- ask him whether he's ever been called on the carpet for being out of line here. :-) If Cam ain't immune to censure, you can be sure ain't no one gets a free pass!
With love,
