I'm pretty sure mine aren't the only band member posts that have been posted either. Pud actually posted about WWRY closing in OT and thats where it stayed. I have tons to say on that thread but wont in OT. Patti, John and Paul are as news worthy as Kasim in my opinion.

Sorry Deb.I was posting at the same time as you
I wholeheartedly agree with you that it would be wrong to allow posts about one band member in GM, and relegate posts about another to OT.
To be honest, I don't remember this subject ever coming up between the forum staff (until, funnilly enough, yesterday
).As there has never been a problem about it, there has never been a firm rule, so it has perhaps left a little confusion on the matter.
That said, we are only human (although many of the membership must find that hard to believe
) and I supose that most of the time we make a on the spot judgement on wether a thread should be moved.The day before, or the day after, we might have acted differently, maybe not.
Again, so far as Pud's thread was concerned, this was on a day where I though that he was happy to post it in OT, so if that's OK with him, it's fine with me.If I first saw that post the day before, or the day after, I might have moved it.I might not have done.
I just did what I thought was right at the time, like i'm sure the rest of the staff do.
Either way, this is something we're talking about at the moment, so there should be a very clear and simple presedent made in the next day or so
