Shame on you (and all of us)

[jammy69]

I'm a rather infrequant poster these days and don't get to reading the threads as often as I like, but feel I need to comment on some recent activity on these boards. Before I continue, I've not been privy to any PMs and only know what I can read here.

I think the people of Salam would have been proud of us over the last few days. We've allowed the malicious gossip of one individual to turn us against one of our own. Without a second thought, without seeking proof, we besmirched a reputation and did our best to drive someone out of the community. It was a witch hunt.

Think of the hurt this must have caused. To be isolated, unsupported and villified for no reason.

This should never have come on to the public forum. A few clear PMs could have sorted it out - but we turned it into a circus.

Shame on us - as a community for not doing the decent thing. I feel it's been a dark few days for EI. Perhaps the apologies can be as public as the outcry has been.
