<p>[QUOTE=&quot;areich, post: 1428249, member: 37479&quot;]Hello</p><p><br /></p><p>I can not tell what happened here, but it looks as if this thread went to a discussion of a tooled ancient coin to some random rambling discussion about inappropriate use of language with a negative ethnic tone.</p><p><br /></p><p>I believe that a mature person needs to examine themselves and look deep into their inner conscience and determine where the fault would lay.&nbsp; I have no idea of the words that the moderator and you had, or with which moderator felt the need to edit out of the thread.&nbsp; But I have enough experience in life to understand that they are being diplomatic.&nbsp; There is no reason for this thread to have melted down to this situation.&nbsp; There was nothing Jewish mentioned, or Korean, or Japanese.&nbsp; Furthermore, this is an open and public forum, not the park bench at a local school yard.&nbsp; Conformity with the simple standards of civil discourse and conversation has to be adhered to.&nbsp; Why would you embarrass yourself, and then embarrass yourself a second time and deflecting the blame in public after an effort was made to keep this matter as private as possible?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I won&#039;t ask you which word you specifically used, but I will tell you that if it was reported, it had to be a word with a fairly negative context.&nbsp; Professing that your a member of the ethnic group in question has no influence on the inappropriate use of such words within a public forum.&nbsp; Also, the context of the use of such a word might be worse than its usage.&nbsp; Why would it be used in this thread?</p><p><br /></p><p>It is not the person who reported you that is the problem.&nbsp; The problem lays at your feet.&nbsp; The fact that you protested in public the private conversation does you no credit, and makes it worse for you.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Amanda[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
