So, by that reasoning, if Adam should step down as list admin, then hey,
Paolo should close the SR Archive as well. After all, running the
archive isn't that different from being RN list admin.

They are freelancers, not full time employees. I trust Adam implicitly
to know where the line lies between his freelancing relationship with
FASA, and his position here on the dumpshock lists, sites and whathave
you not. And you can rest assured that if any of the current DS staff
members and GridSec had issues with it, it would have been discussed. He
also knows I'd kick his arse (as would Neuron, though a bit more
literally) to the moon if he did start pulling the wrong sort of tricks
for an open atmosphere list. (Net Ettiquette not withstanding)

Now if you'll excuse me, I have some non FASA beta work to get back to.
Enjoy.

Okay. I'm delurking here for a sentance or two... being one of the least
visible list member, despite being here on and off for the past darn if I can
remember years. But I'm going to speak up here.

Adam is not an elitist. He is far too kind a man at his heart to be an elitist.
He may be one opinionated bastard-- know what you're getting into if you talk
religion with him-- but he is never maliscious just on the base of a contrary
opinion.

Mark-- he's only around one list really when something Admin related needs
addressing... how can he be elitest?

Dvixen and Paolo... elitist? Paolo operates (now with help, but he started it)
the BIGGEST collection of SR stuff out there, it's open to submissions...
Elitist? Pardon? As for Dvixen, the few times I talked to her, she was polite as
I was to her.

Fer crying out loud, I didn't name a fictional hero after Gurth because the
guy's a jerk!

Ahem. In other words, to Nightlife and others of that opinion.... you'll have to
give me more actual proof to show that they're elitist before I'll swallow that
one.

Carry on.
