Chris, Graham, Zach, and I, just got to the point where we agreed to not make it personal, and were moving on in a more friendly (non-personal) atmosphere, so your timing is perfect if you all you intend is to sabotage the environment and denegrate the discussion with personal insults and flagrant attacks.

I've witnessed your methods with Bob H., here it's me, then Zach, and ?

i'm sure many will see this as reflecting quite positively on you and your organization.

Please don't look at the info we are presenting, simply continue to insult us instead...

So what you are saying is it is fine for the fox to guard the henhouse. And if someone is questioning another's motives, methods and character- we have no right to bring up the character of any of the questioners. Sounds like a stacked decked to me.

Chris?

Ater reading your request, i'm surprised to see you involving yourself here...and (apparently) trying to influence Zach's work.

if you wish to remain impartial, perhaps you should do as you requested others to do.

you demanded side by side code, we provided that, and now you are qualifying the request...i.e the code provided is not what i'm interested in?
i want something different?

i'm sorry, i think (as a moderator) you should excuse yourself from the discussion, it appears that you're trying to influence the outcome.

I looked back but was not able to find the posts. Im just wondering if you are the same "Norm" who got caught red-handed with his hand in the cookie jar- and was apologetic and showed remorse ONLY after being caught. My apologies if i am confusing you with the "person of very questionable character and ethics" i refer to.
lets see, maybe:
a forum user with a close relationship to the subject of the thread
enters a discussion of facts and information
does not engage in a discussion of facts or information
does not read the information provided
turns a blind eye to any facts being presented
instead directly proceeds to personally attack each person involved with the creation of thread

yes, i think you are confused...

Chris is a programmer and well qualified to comment. Being a moderator shouldn't stop one from having the same posting rights as other members.
I completely agree with this assessment, Graham. :)
