I know the Administration is in the process of letting folks know of these small changes, and perhaps it is not yet widespread knowledge. My intent was not to confuse at all.

Myself and the other Mods are all new at Moderating this forum. Our goal is to be as non intrusive as possible while insuring the forum maintains the high level of quality it has had for a very long time.

Moderating is not always black and white, and we may not get it right all of the time. In this thread, there were a couple of posts that were not quite as kind as we usually see. They discussed the poster rather then the topic....so I deleted them.
The next two posts were referring to those now deleted posts, so I deleted them, as they were not "orphaned".....pertaining to posts no longer there.

Again, I'm sorry if I caught you by surprise. When posts are reported, the Moderators get an e-mail alert, so a reported post can be looked at, and if deemed necessary be dealt with.

Respectfully,

Frank
