The conclusion reached as adopted by Dr. Bob was that only those notifications that require action would be replied to - either by e-mail or by a posting on the board. This precedent was established without its being codified in the TOS or FAQ. Were you present during these discussions?

If you could post a link to that, we could see.
But I have that notifications will either be posted to in the thread OR the member using the notification will be contacted. I know of no post by the admin that states otherwise.
What I am under the impression is that:
A. If there is not a post in the thread to the statement in question by Mr Hsiung or deputy, then one will receive a direct response via e or b mail from them
B. That the standard is just that, and there are not two standards in using the notification procedure.
C. The fact that it is against the rules to not use the notification system by posting that something is against the rules on the board. leaves only the notification system for one to object to what is posted to be allowed to stand.
D. If the notification remains outstanding, then others can think that what is in question is acceptable and will be good for he community as a whole. This means that if hatred toward the Jews is allowed to stand, others could think that hate is supportive and target a Jew for harm or murder, for some could think that the anti-Semitism that is allowed to stand is state-sponsored, and that they will being doing good for the community since they could think that is what Mr Hsiung wants, could they not?.
