[ga-abuse] Eric Diekers Suspension Notice
If we all agree to this, we'll need to have his privileges removed before I
send the message to he and the GA tomorrow morning.
----------------------------------
To: GA & Eric Dierker
Subject: Two Week Suspension of Eric Dierker
Eric & All Assembly Members,
Eric Dierker's posting privileges have been suspended for two weeks
beginning today Friday May 4 until Saturday May 19, 2001.
I am hopeful we agree to the decision made concerning Eric's use of
language on the lists April 19th and 20th (April 5th & 8th are being
overlooked since he was a candidate at that time and presumably
campaigning) as several complaints have been received against Eric's posts.
If you disagree, please review the rules you agreed to when you signed up
prior to beginning a discussion.

After reviewing the complaints and many messages, we discovered the
reoccurring theme mentioned in the various complaints, which is the
excessive use of abusive language not relevant to technical discussion. In
addition there are many personal attacks, insinuations, and much of the
commentary lacks clarity and good intention.
I understand Eric has already received a warning for this behavior. It is
the practiced policy for him to receive a two week suspension beginning
today, May 4, 2001. I look forward to his participation in the group again
this May 19th, 2001.
If you have questions/concerns; please let us know.
Thanks,
~~k
Also, in response to questions raised by Eric, there is a committee
handling complaints. No one person is burdened with the responsibility of
making decisions about what is and what is not appropriate language use in
the DNSO GA lists. Most of us have never met.
And in response to the complaint received from you, as you wrote, there was
a confirmation sent. This means your plea was received and will be
resolved as soon as possible. Unfortunately there were an incredible
amount of appeals received at that time. We are volunteers and doing our
very best.
