Phicksus, carl.h's query will be dealt with eventually. But meanwhile, the staff have more important things to do. Running a grid, launching new projects, dealing with the project scientists - that sort of thing. At the moment, WCG are dealing with (I think) 7 projects in various stages of development. They are exceedingly busy! So, carl.h may have to just accept that WCG have sole discretion in these matters - and if they say he broke the rules, then he broke the rules. And carl.h accepted a Licence Agreement stating this, so there's no room for argument. You mean these forum rules? Any offensive or inappropriate forum post may be edited, locked, or removed at the sole discretion of World Community Grid. When World Community Grid takes such action, comments as to why the action was taken will be provided on the affected forum post within a reasonable time period. A reasonable time period is defined as being within 24 hours, but could be as long as 72 hours on weekends or holidays. Any questions about these rules should be addressed to World Community Grid via the Contact Us facility. And this license agreement? YOU WILL FOLLOW ALL CURRENT AND FUTURE POLICIES AND RULES OF WORLD COMMUNITY GRID; THOSE RULES WILL BE UPDATED ON WORLD COMMUNITY GRID SITE FROM TIME TO TIME. YOU WILL NOT USE ANY TEAM OR INDIVIDUAL NAME OR ID OR CONTENT OR HYPERLINK TO ANOTHER SITE IN CONNECTION WITH WORLD COMMUNITY GRID THAT COULD BE CONSIDERED OFFENSIVE OR OBJECTIONABLE IN ANY WAY. WE WILL HAVE THE SOLE DISCRETION TO DECIDE WHETHER A NAME, ID, CONTENT OR HYPERLINK TO ANOTHER SITE IS OFFENSIVE OR OBJECTIONABLE IN ANY WAY. AT OUR REQUEST, YOU WILL IMMEDIATELY CHANGE THE NAME OR ID, REMOVE THE CONTENT, AND END THE HYPERLINK. IN THE EVENT YOU INCLUDE A HYPERLINK TO ANOTHER SITE, YOU WILL MAKE IT EXPLICIT THAT WORLD COMMUNITY GRID IS NOT RESPONSIBLE IN ANY WAY FOR THAT SITE OR ITS CONTENT. ENDING YOUR PARTICIPATION IN WORLD COMMUNITY GRID OR ENDING WORLD COMMUNITY GRID YOU OR IBM OR WORLD COMMUNITY GRID MAY END YOUR PARTICIPATION IN WORLD COMMUNITY GRID AT ANY TIME WITHOUT CAUSE BY NOTICE TO THE OTHER. IF YOUR PARTICIPATION ENDS, YOU WILL IMMEDIATELY EITHER RETURN TO WORLD COMMUNITY GRID OR DESTROY ALL SOFTWARE AND OTHER MATERIALS YOU RECEIVED FROM WORLD COMMUNITY GRID OR OTHERS IN CONNECTION WITH THE WORLD COMMUNITY GRID. WORLD COMMUNITY GRID ALSO RESERVES THE RIGHT TO END IMMEDIATELY WORLD COMMUNITY GRID IN WHOLE OR IN PART WITHOUT CAUSE. WORLD COMMUNITY GRID WILL HAVE THE RIGHT TO PROVIDE NOTIFICATIONS TO YOU UNDER THIS PARAGRAPH THROUGH E-MAILS, REGULAR MAIL, FAX, PHONE, OR A NOTICE ON WORLD COMMUNITY GRID WEB SITE. Are you suggesting that Carl's participation in WCG has been or will be terminated? I won't be guilted into sitting in the corner that a good obedient child. WGC wouldn't have this problem if they didn't feel the need to silence Carl so much that he was banned. The other discussions were over. Your right though I can't force you to reverse your decision but I can sure express my displeasure about it. WCG is wrong in the matter and I won't be silent about it either. |

Some of the same kinds of messages continue to be posted, but from invisible purgatory. Many would have to be completely edited out to make them family friendly and religion friendly.

Some are posted on in emails to teams aren`t they retsof ?
I`m invisible and I take exception to the action when I am innocent. If you punish an innocent don`t expect him to thankyou. Going back to what started it heres part of a report from BBC By their very nature they weren't designed for a 21st Century secular democracy like Britain, where Islam is a minority religion. Imams educated in them tend to see Islam as good, and everything else as bad." Prof Geaves says very few imams are making any effort to upgrade their academic or professional skills. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6280238.stm Now I didn`t invove you lot initially you came and started a flame war not me, I was involved in conversation. One of the first jibes posted was a butt plug for pulling the anus from a deer, is that guy invisible ? And remember this was in a Religious thread that Islam would have felt a great insult ! |

The first jibe from Marsduby
---------------------------------------- There are better things to worry about--So get a life Then was the butt plug issue which was deleted, none of mine were ! Howether Nelsoc felt he had to state... Transgressions to the forum rules have been made by both sides of this smoldering flame war. As far as I`m aware I`m the only invisible one. Oooh yeah then was the Northern Ireland debate with a protestant whom I fought for, lost goods friends for, sanctioning murder of women and children but of course I wouldn`t get upset. I didn`t swear or break rules to my knowledge but I did speak my mind ! Something smells around here doesn`t it. And yes by all means come visit the Teddies forum.....but not everything is on view to the public. [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Jul 7, 2007 2:54:34 PM] |

Tolerance
Now most of these Religions do NOT promote tolerance infact they are sectarian in many ways and their books promote it. We`ve seen Evodude whose Orange order promotes the killing of Catholics, he uses the Christians as cover. I don`t want to see anyone killed, hurt or suffer which is why I do not like religion. Being an athiest I am not tolerated by any of them, I`m to burn in hell which isn`t nice is it unless I concede to their blackmail which will never happen. Now if you look at all the evidence I did not start the arguments, I was outspoken but within the rules. I have opinions, don`t we all and I enjoy the freedom of sharing them and trying to educate those I think are being hoodwinked. |

I will defend my rights to have the freedom of opinion within the bounds of the law until death.
I will defend my friends, I will defend my team until death and if this is death then so be it. I did my duty and held to my principles. One of the great things about the States is the fact that they will defend their freedoms. This is my stand and I will not falter ! |

Yes there are post`s here in my little lonesome dark world that maybe shouldn`t have been made but all I knew was they couldn`t be seen at that time I never realised they took up space and were in actual fact visible to admin.
----------------------------------------I thought I was in a little world of my own, a little solitary confinement where noone could hear my thoughts. No mails or anything from admin to tell me what the hell was going on, adrift alone in the solitude of IBM space ! Then I realised.

< Disclaimer: If you find what I write in this vast wilderness of obscurity to be against WCG rules don`t read it >
I think Chip was allowed his similar disclaimer to stand for a very long time before anyone did anything. |
