[THOTH]

Let me explain. I spent a lot of time browsing through AccyWeb before joining and on the many occasions when a Thread was branching away from the original topic, the posting drawing attention to this was made on the actual Thread.

So, following what appeared to be Custom and Practice I did the same when I came across what seemed to be a flagrant example, and a Moderator must have felt the same although no action was taken.

I am well aware that it is so easy to go off at a tangent and there are numerous examples were this has occurred without comment and I am sure it will continue.

I have been led to understand that the use of Capitals in a posting signifies shouting. The type size in reply to my comment suggests a near hysterical outburst.

Most organisations, and I am relating, in this context, the membership of AccyWeb to be an "organisation", have an Inner Mafia, to whom criticism, particularly by a Newby is resented.

I hope this is not the case on this superb Board, which tolerates postings ranging from the almost inarticulate to the magnificent prose of our friend A-Bob
