It's not? Apparently what is in the TOS and what is ENFORCED by the very moderators who are violating the TOS are two different things.

You can not be "hateful" by attacking an idea. The only way you can be "hateful" is by launching a personal attack on a poster. You have demonstrated quite a working knowlege of the latter in this thread.

Now, why are MY questions not answered?

Let's start with this one:
I have repeatedly asked why calling for Tom's removal was posted on this forum. As I stated previously, if a president or a vice president was a problem, the company would not send an e-mail to it's entire company down to the secretaries and interns calling for his/her removal.

The proper chain of events would be to:
1. Discuss the problem with the person involved PRIVATELY

If no satisfactory outcome, the next action would be to:
2. Bring the matter to the board of directors PRIVATELY

So... WHY WAS THIS NOT BROUGHT TO JOHN PRIVATELY AND KEPT PRIVATE UNTIL YOU HAD A RESOLUTION?

It is this bully-brigade tactic that is objectionable. It is unprofessional and childish. It has been used on Tom, as well as on non-moderators. There was even a parody posted on another area of GC of one PNAM's thread. Do people think it's funny to have a laugh at the expense of others? Do you not think that perhaps you are hurting someone?

It seems that anytime one of the certain self appointed "clique" doesn't agree with a poster, the bully-brigade swoops down like vultures on a carcass and pecks the person apart. Very immature behavior, that certainly wouldn't get you very far in a corporate climate.

Some things for those who are doing the attacking to ask themselves:

How afraid are you (collective you) of someone else's opinion, that you can't just agree to disagree?

Do you (collective you) have such low self esteem that you can't fight your battles alone, but must "call in the troops" for re-enforcement?

Do you (collective you) gain some sort of pleasure out of hurting people? If so... why? Does it make you (collective you) feel like a bigger person? Does it give you (collective you) some sort of artificial power by thinking you're (collective you're) QUEENS of Greek Chat?

And finally do you (collective you) think your (collective your) sarcastic comments, and belittling statements would make your GLO proud?

Speaking of bitching...remember when you called us all bitches?!? That sounds like a personal attack to me! woo woo!
