I'm sorry Jamie, I'll learn to speak more clearly than I did in item 68,
response 241.
I, as a member of staff, am opposed to removing item 39.
Valerie was not "The staff", she was one of several staff members.

If M-Net's treasurer embezzles the full contents of M-Net's bank account
and loses it in a slot machine, would you then declare that people
shouldn't give money to M-Net because it is the demonstrated policy of
M-net to gamble away it's funds?

Ah Jamie, I'm quickly learning why you're so loved here for your understanding
of the English language.
When someone is accused of a crime and undergoes a trial, do we assume that
the law broken is suddenly broken and null for all until the trial is done?
No.

As long as we're on the legal analogy, I'd like to point out that
not all rulings which contravene previously standard practice
actually establish valid precedent.

Re resp:5: The current policy is staff will only remove items if your

(The current policy, as much as there is one, is that staff will not remove
items.)

Umm, to which address did you send that? I only have the Jan 6th request in
my staff email account.

And just what *is* that policy, pray tell?! If there were such a policy,
surely it was documented, and could be dragged out and posted for all to read.
And there would therefore be no need for the proposal on the subject now
alive in coop.
Either there is (was!) a policy or there isn't. If there is, let's see it,
please.

The "personal favors for favored persons" policy has not been written
anywhere as it directly contradicts grex's professed dedication to free
and uncensored speech.

(resp:24 there isn't a policy, and the item can't be deleted in
accordance with a policy that doesn't exist. that's my take on what
Jan meant, although he's certainly more qualified to clarify his
comments than I am.)
(I also think Jan's response was amusing, although it doesn't please me
that he had to write it.) :P

Not that I support jp2's call to have item #39 deleted, but if there truly
is no policy, then it certainly can't be used to explain why the item can't
be deleted *because* of policy. If I am missing obvious sarcasm in the
response, then I plead guilty.
A "better" response IMO would be something like "C'mon jp2, gimme a break,
you know there is no policy on this yet, so we are under no obligation to act
on your request. We are going to do what should have been done before jep's
items were deleted: Have grex reach consensus or see a policy established."
