>> Put your hand on your heart and answer this:
>> Do you think that Roy, Ross and Shannon would respect a moderators request?

 st> If we had a real editor, I would abide by that editor's moderated
 st> decisions regarding this echo.  I abide by other moderators decisions in
 st> other echos out of respect, and I've seen Roy, Dan, and Ross do the same
 st> thing in other echos.

In the echoes I am we don't even have a moderator.

 st> I don't have any respect for Bjorn.

Just as much as I have for you then.

 st> I used to respect Bjorn, but then he started repeatedly 'bashing' my
 st> government and my fellow countryman.  As a matter of fact, we used to be
 st> friends; we tried to meet up once during one my trips to Germany.

It isn't once fault that two argue.

 st> It was during one of his anti-US tirades that I lost all respect for him.
 st> He indicated that he hates Americans and regardless of our friendship I'm
 st> an American, so that -- was that.... It was about that period of time that
 st> things began to fall apart in the sysop echo as well and things just moved
 st> over here....  It wasn't about an echo election, it was about his hatred
 st> and verbal bashing of my country and fellow countryman that caused many of
 st> us, but especially 'me to loose respect for him.

I don't have much respect for either you, Ross, Roy or Frank either but I know
a
lot of Americans that I respect very much so it has nothing to do with you
being
Americans. It's your attitude.

 st> What if that were you?  What if some US editor had begun to repeatedly
 st> bash Sweden and all Swedes?  How would you feel?  Honestly -- we know how
 st> you would feel because he did it to us.

Well, if it's justified I wouldn't have a problem with it and if we take the
invation of
Iraq it was done for the right purpose but for the wrong reason and USA
deserves
all the blaim for it and there are one person here in FidoNet that STILL claim
that
there were wmd:s in Iraq and how do you deal with fanatics like that?

 st> What Bjorn tore down, he can never rebuild.  The only way for this echo to
 st> ever have peace is to pass the torch to an editor who is and may remain
 st> neutral.

I can agree with you there but who could possibly put on that hat and do a good
job?

 st> There are maybe 5 likely candidates around the world who would possibly be
 st> respected by all (or the majority) of us, one who doesn't continually bash
 st> a country and their people based on personal bias.

I can't think of anyone.

 st> Shannon

 st> (Are you going to continue this intelligent thread or simply spew out more
 st> insults and vulgar language....?)

That Depends<tm> on how you interpret it.
