[R-390] Netiquette

[Chris Kepus]

Perry, my answer to your question is that I would prefer to know rather than
not know.  
Thanks for the alert.  
73,

List,

Don Wrote:  Respectfully, whatever you think of the man, IMO this is a
personal attack that is beyond the bounds of acceptable netiquette.

I respectfully disagree.  This really has nothing to do of my "opinion". I
factually pointed out why I was exposing this individual who was preying on
the good will of those on the list.  I was telling the proven facts about
this persons actions.  We are all responsible for out actions.  Exposing the
dark side of a persons actions to the list is saving someone else from
being, at the very kindest way it can be said, taking advantage of the very
good generosity of list members.

Now a question for all:  Several years ago I came across a large quantity of
Twin-Ax connectors.  I didn't even come close to breaking even on the
selling price.  A list member ordered twenty which I sent.  He never paid me
the $25 he owed even after two emails reminding him of his obligation.

If he offers something for sale on the list should I keep quiet about his
previous dishonesty and let someone, maybe you, possibly get shafted?

I admit a bit of sarcasm in some of my comments.  It was earned.  I'm not
like some people who when kicked ones private anatomy say "Why, that wasn't
cricket!" 

<Please take this into consideration next time you are tempted to post
something of this nature -- there is just no call for it, IMO.

I did and I'll make the same respectful exposure of anyone else trying shaft
me or list members.

<I'm not trying to be mean, and I hope you don't take it that way, but I
really feel this needed to be pointed out.  

Don, have never, ever been mean.  You've done a great job handling
irrational, mis-spelled, and somewhat incoherent rants. 

When civility is lost, we are nothing but somewhat clever animals.

True.  "All it takes for evil to flourish is for good men to do nothing." 

Regards,

Perrier
