The bottom line is that it is easy for anyone to come on here and bash someone else and call their ethics into question whether they know them or not. I am sure some people may be interested in the truth but there are some that simply go from drama to drama trying to point fingers and inflame the list. People jump to conclusions without ever knowing the people involved at all. If one statement is made, many take it as gospel. When the person that is attacked comes on to defend themselves and set the record straight, it becomes a witch hunt and everyone assumes that you are guilty until proven innocent. I experienced this myself recently without any provocation at all. Prior to that I was rarely on this forum. Since that time I have been monitoring the forum and I see this same pattern time after time. IMO, there needs to be more respect shown both ways and if you have a problem, at least try to resolve it privately before coming on here
