Yes really. Please reread the text you quoted.
Listmom has allowed an extremely off-topic thread to continue without
addressing it. Since I don't know who listmom is, or listmom's address, I
cannot contact listmom directly to register a complaint with listmom
regarding his/her lack of response (my complaint is NOT about the topic).
As such, I am forced to post my complaint to listmom publicly as this is the
only way I know to contact listmom.
This thread has "evolved" but it originated as a griped about someone's sig.
As I touched on in my original post, I responded to someone's sig once. That
snowballed into a hot, off-topic debate. I was promptly reprimanded (within
hours of my post).
I'm bothered that someone has griped about the sig, it has snowballed into a
hot, off-topic debate, and now, almost 4 days later, listmom has not
intervened. Why not? hence my complaint to listmom.
Thankfully I do not allow my emotions to dominate me, otherwise I would have
"shared" my opinions relating to the topic back when it started. I actually
know how to keep my mouth shut, because if I've learned one thing in life,
it's that there is no end to a debate on the topic of politics and religion.
