In the recovery conference, I entered an item rightly calling the FW jaklumen
a bigot, but then he apparently retired it.  I don't know about here, but on
M-NEt, we call that FW abuse.  I demand someone do something.
10 responses total.

Who gives a  shit?  Just keep making threads with the topic FW jaklumen is
a censor.

I have no idea what the policy on this is.  I think if his alleged bigotry
is relevant to his behavior as fairwitness in the conference it is probably
inappropriate to retire it.  If not, it can probably be retired just as any
other off topic discussion could be.  If the same accusation has been made
in many other places, then I'm less inclined to worry about the retirement.
Mostly I think it is a poor strategy for dealing with such postings, but I
can't say I much give a dang.

Well, since he considers the people against whom he's bigoted can "recover",
it is of course relevent to his FW duties.  And it wouldn't have been brought
up in other places had he not censored the information!

It's quite simple!

I went and looked at the item.  It says "Jaklumen is a bigot".  That's the
complete text.  No issue is raised that appears to be relevant to the
conference.  It's background noise.  I have no problem with that being
retired.  (Though again, I can't remember what exactly the Grex policy
on this is supposed to be.)

That being said, I note that the item isn't currently retired.

Re #8:  If the FW wishes to spare other participants the burden of
viewing such crap, IMHO that's within the parameters of the job.
