Cancelling is a chore, but sometimes a necessity. It just gets nasty
if the person cancelled feels no one has the right to cancel his or
her messages (as if this was his or her personal server) and starts
doing bad things.

It is a bit silly to get so upset about it. I have been cancelled
before. A few times I deserved it as I used language that might have
been a bit off-color. Another time, I did not understand why, given
the context, but I did not cry (or plan an attack) and I cannot expect
a moderater to spend an hour scanning an entire convoluted thread to
see if my particular post should be exempt from the rules. The rules
are there to make this a better place for all of us to exchange
information. But the one thing, I don't think I have ever forgotten,
and that is, that this is NOT my server. I am a guest.

This forum has gotten way out of hand in recent years and I was losing
interest, and I know of several friends who felt the same way, but it
is heading back on track now... and I appreciate it.
