NYSbirds-L State-wide Birding Community: As some of you may have seen, a message was posted to the NYSbirds-L eList on Thursday (4/21) that was in flagrant violation of the Rules of NYSbirds-L.
The Rules of NYSbirds-L are accessible here: http://www.northeastbirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm. It is my belief that the individual joined NYSbirds-L (on 4/17/22) for the explicit purpose of eventually posting a publicly flaming and offensive message to over 1,400 subscribed email addresses, and countless hundreds or thousands of non-subscribed birders reading these birding posts at various online sites. The violator has been suspended and will be banned following distribution of this message. Regardless of how passionately someone may feel concerning the behaviors of an individual or individuals, it is intolerable to use this forum to post any publicly flaming or offensive messages directed at individuals. If anyone has specific personal concerns about other users or topics posted on this eList, please do not post these concerns to the entire List. Instead, direct concerns to the Listowner, off-list. As Listowner, I would like to publicly apologize for not responding to this sooner, as I have been preoccupied with other commitments. Thank you!
