Native Hawaiian biologist receives death threats from cat colonists

I suggest you bring your concerns to a moderator.

If Punaweb members were civil to each other there would be no concerns or need for a moderator.

If Punaweb members didn’t walk right up to the line that outlines forum rules, then argue that they’re not on the line, or claim through lengthy discussions that their comments were misinterpreted, so they never said anything that fits into the definition of words that would place them over the line because their definition of those words clearly defines the words in a manner which defends each and every point they’ve made, a moderator wouldn’t be necessary.

If Punaweb members didn’t threaten other members (lawsuits? really?)there would be no concerns about whether actions taken were too little, too much, or not required at all.  All of which have been suggested by one member or another over the past few days.

I wonder if anyone who ever broke forum rules believed they broke forum rules when writing a post?  Even as they click Post Reply? Even after the reply has been posted? (There is no correct answer to those questions)

Unfortunately moderators are needed as several on here thrive on not being civil. Then the uncivility escalates. Also, some posters appear to be unable or unwilling to let go of past grudges against others. Grudges due to old arguments, debates, insults, etc.

If it makes you feel better to blame things on Kane, feel free. However, the ongoing nastiness is not from him. I won't respond to anymore taunts and insults from HJ about this topic moving forward.

Anyways, your initial concern was the deleted thread, which appears to have been done by a moderator. I can assure you that neither Kane nor I requested a deletion of the thread.
