Now with your response I'm lost. The moderator didn't respond with any negativity, she made a statement to inform, not criticize. If she didn't care about the young lady, her comment would have been ignored. The reason she made the comment about not putting down another org was when the lady stated, she read the history of Delta, but it failed miserably in changing her mind. There are a variety of ways to interpret that statement, good and bad. One such example could be the history lacked what it takes to change her mind. To get technical with the issue, failed and miserably are words with a negative connotation. Now wouldn't that be a put down? Of course it would. That's why the moderator made that post to deter any negative comments because we try to keep the negativity rate down for future posters in this forum. Even though the young lady stated she meant no harm, different people read post in a different manner....that's life. So let's stop making situations an AKA versus sisterfriends confrontation, or taking words more out of context than orginally intended.

The latter post stating, "unfortunately others may not think they way you do," wasn't negative to me either. It just meant one org may be perfect for you and for the next person it may not be. This is what keeps all organizations striving. That's what makes the world so diverse. I saw no harm in either post whatsoever, but that's my personal opinion, the real reason for participating in a forum, am I correct?
