12. Sorry, Karl
Edited on Mon Sep-29-03 08:30 PM by gottaB
I offered alternatives to yes or no because I know people have mixed feelings and differing views. I'm sorry that none of the options came close to representing your view.

As for detection, I'm asking if it's a fair question to ask of members. I wouldn't think of advocating "outing" people or going outside this forum to dig up dirt on people. That would suck.

As for enforecement, I don't know. I trust DUers to abide the rules of the forum, and I trust the moderators to enforce the rules.

So this question is rather naive, but I wanted to get a sense of how others feel about it.
