    5 years ago, we always notified the member, not for pefmission but as a courtesy before moving, editing something - unless it were a gross rule violation.

    In general, I would say no. There would need to be more to it than just not participating.

    I agree that they should be notified, and that was probably overlooked in the example you are thinking of. However, it is also the responsibility of members to pay attention to and heed in thread warnings/actions.

    Forum Advisors are leaders of the forum, and as such should aid in our goal of promoting world-class political discussion by following the rules as an example of good behavior and good discussion ethics to the general membership.
    Ok.

    And when they don't promote "world-class political discussion by following the rules", what should we do?

    Perhaps you might move on to a more fruitful discussion in another thread.

    Whatever you do, don't visit The Hole. It will melt your eyes and render you witless.

    Your warning comes too late, I think.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    I believe you'd be better served to c/p the posts of the supposed offending adviser/s to a MOD.
    It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.
