I could care less about how he handled the Wate problem. As far as he knows, it's internet Rumor.
The thing that bothers me about predictor is the wanton censorship that knows no bounds
I's not only the censorship, it's his whole attitude.
He called the messengers about the trojan a mob. This includes of course by default all project admins that acted against W***.
He compared those that didn't want to get stifled with intruders in a private house, wanting to talk about the KKK, where all we did was go as old customers in a Nike-shop and asked about sweat shops. Of course he can "call the police", but he has to live with the self created image of evasiveness and with angry customers.
He closed the thread about W*** in a manner that said: "I don't want to hear about this any more, bugger off, I don't care about this." And he expected that this lonely, unexplained decision would be taken without any comment, just "because he said so."
When some of his customers/donators didn't bow to his wishes and still wanted to know what will be done in regard of W*** he simply deleted their posts, threads, banned them first for 2 weeks, then as much as possible in a unix-environment, finally he blocked whole IP-ranges from any access to the boards.
No explanation was given to anyone, in the moderation notices I recieved was written
The moderator gave this explanation to why your thread was moderated:
None Given
The only reason I could think of is of course: He doesn't like to be asked questions, I intruded his little kingdom, he gives a f*** about his donators.
I agree that one of my later banned accounts (#4 or 5) was rightfully banned, I just got frustrated and retracted to a bit of name calling. But 'til then the onla name calling was from dlb, in calling anybody who disagreed with him "the mob."
The funniest thing about his answer is of course that he wrote an email to the trojan writer and he seems to think he'll get any answer. If this is the path of action he want to take agains rogue users, he'll have none, I suspect W*** won't answer this mail. So instead of doing his job as the responsible IT-admin and have a closer look at it, do some research, he did everything not to have to do anything against his beloved cruncher W***.
And since no-one without credits can post any longer, no-one with a bit of selfrespect will crunch a WU for such a project, and the original accounts conveniently banned, he can sit in his fairy land of no discussion and pretend everything's fine.
