If I mail bombed the system, but I reported it first, would I be let off?
No. Neither should Valerie: she actually censored items with HUNDREDS of
responses from other users. That is a SERIOUS offence, and no-one but someone
fucking a staff member would be given the priviledge.

Um, Valerie, you know it's not. That's why people can't do it unless they
abuse their staff powers.

(Of course, we know for a fact that Valerie IS a liar. She said in a previous
item that she'd restore my polytarp account if I fulfilled certain conditions.
I did, and she never restored the account; no PRAGMATIC harm was done, of
course, because cross eventually restored it for me, but there's, I should
think, harm done in that LIES are INHERENTLY unjust. that's just imho,
though.)

Right, especially ignore us when we're trying to prevent abuse of the system.

Right, let's let Grex become a place absent of free speech, because you don't
like the a subset of the people complaining about the erosion of free speech.

#4: "It's longstanding Grex policy that the person who created an item
can delete it."
Really? I don't think so.

To clarify: People are allowed to purge their own responses, but
not those of other people. At least, that's always been my
understanding.

It's never been the case that one user could remove another person's
posts. No without root power. Didn't you notice then when you
first tried to remove the entire items while on as valerie?
Is it possible for you to put the items back (I assume you have them
backed up somewhere) then delete only your responses? I know that
would be a job, but it's the right thing to do. In my opinion.

re 11 The only time that can happen is if that item has responses only
by the person who created it. Once other people respond to it, that
ability is removed.
As you can see, it required an abuse of Conference Admin priviledges to
delete these items. There were several other alternatives, such as
freezing and retiring them, or censoring her own responses, rather than
the deletion of not only Valerie's posts, but other, innocent users.
Not to mention she hid the fact that she deleted these items. At least
on m-net, this doesn't happen.

Valerie took advantage of staff powers to do something that the rest of
us wouldn't be allowed to do. I don't think she had any ill intent,
though. I'd have to say I think it's a bit "unfair" but I don't find it
too troubling beyond that. If this is the most inappropriate thing Grex
staff has ever done, we're doing pretty good.
I think valerie at least owes an apology to people who posted. If the
items can be recovered I think they should be replaced. I'm not willing
to call for her to resign, though; as far as I know this hasn't happened
before, so I don't see a pattern of abuse here.

Your demand has no force.
If you are serious about it, make a specific proposal in Co-op, and
if the majority of the membership agrees with you (which I seriously
doubt will happen, especially if the removal of the posts by other
users is undone), then Valerie's staff staus would be revoked.

Oh for Christ's sake, naftee, get a clue. Nobody hid anything.
And this wasn't a malicious action. I expect Valerie was very hurt by
what she found on M-net. Why not talk about this in reasonable terms and
see if there is a less drastic "fix" before we bring out the stones.
Maybe we should even see if folks care. Lots of forums seem to function
pretty well with censorship the norm. It's been a long long time since we
looked at how our fairly rigid censorship policy is working for Grex.
I know how I feel about it, but I'd be curious how others see it.

If you think the welcome line should be changed, make a proposal and
if the majority of the membership agrees with you then it will be
changed.
