I'd rather read tadmans retouched and generally pleasant, interesting and helpful words than yours. If you feel so strongly about this issue that want to stand up on a soapbox and rail against the world about it then how about you at least do it with a name?

Nobody (well, maybe the gods could if they gave a toot) can tell who you are behind your pseudonym, so theres no real reason to play the "anoymous monk" bitching game.

Anyway, I almost never vote on an anonypost, and ive never -- one for sure, so it's a bit sad that my first time doing so involves so nodes.

Oh, BTW, its the kind of attitude that you display that makes people run from CLPM to here. Bad attitude on the part of our community is a much bigger threat to it than minor edits of a post.

Get a pseudonym and stand by your words dude.

Perhaps editing posts should not be allowed?

Howdy!

OK. So you didn't "switch" to Anonymous Monk. You still posted needlessly tendentious replies anonymously. That is not the mark of civil discourse and conversation. That is the mark of lame flaming.

By remaining anonymous, you limit your credibility, and get tarred with the actions of other Anonymous Monks, since we can't tell them apart.

You claim to have better things to do with your time. Your responses on the thread suggest that you misspeak -- otherwise why bother posting?

As an anonymonk, you can't edit your posts. That means your complaint post cannot have been updated in response to the crime. You had to specifically refresh tadman's post repeatedly, monitoring for changes, waiting to make your move. Obviously you must indeed have that kind of time.

So while your concern as such is certainly valid, do you think you are setting a brightly shining example to follow by using ambush tactics to target a stream of profanities at a fellow monk?
