The Appeal to my Suspension

Darat is abusing is power again. Just yesterday I sent a complaint e-mail to James Randi and D.J. Grothe (President) of the JREF complaining about the abusive conduct of Jeff Wagg. I guess it took a day to filter down to Jeff and subsequently to Darat to once again kick me off the JREF. Or maybe I am paranoid, like Jeff says.

The following is the appeal I have submitted. Decide for yourself.

I appeal the following:

Infraction & Suspension:

The thread is about bias in closing FM threads. Darat in one of his posts in the thread in question wrote:

Well yes and no. The "yes" is the fact that someone, for example, who kept opening a thread about something they've been told not to do so would be treated differently based on the warnings they have received, but in the more general sense, it's a "no".

The text that was removed from my post was an example of [I]exactly[/I] what Darat described in the quoted paragraph. How can it be off topic for Darat to discuss it but not myself?

In my infracted post, I presented further evidence of bias in thread closures, which is exactly that the thread is about. I dealt specifically with how many threads are left open, which is a direct answer to Darat's question of "in what way" do Plumjam's statistics indicate a pattern of bias. The infraction was for Rule 11. and for the life of me I cannot see how answering Darat's question in the thread is a Rule 11 violation.

Tempe Condos for Sale

Tempe Condos

If you work in Tempe, Arizona, you should live in Tempe, right? Well, these days you can find great deals on condos in Tempe, but you have to know who to ask. The Tempe Condo Experts are the best source of information around.

Seriously, when you think Tempe Condos, think Tempe Condo Experts. Do you know what a condo is? Well, simply put, when you buy a unit (often called a condo) in a condominium, you will essentially own everything from the walls inward. You will own a shared interest in the common property with all of the other homeowners. You will have the same rights to the pool and grounds as everyone else.

You will own an interest in the condominium association and with that have an obligation to pay monthly dues that will cover such things as water, sewer, garbage collection, landscaping, as well as a contribution to the reserve fund for planned maintenance projects. In many ways this is no different than owning a single family home. You pay for trash collection. You either maintain your yard yourself or pay someone else to do it. And every month you put away some money knowing that someday your roof will need replacing.
