The reason I used such 'vague' language, Ian, is out of consideration for the admirable facility you have indeed provided. I feared that if I were to spell it out, there would be an immediate response from another Tarboarder and a flame war would start. I imagined that you would not want this.

Some Tarboarders have queried why there is no link to this Board on the new Website, and I have endeavoured to provide an answer, within the rules of the board. Are you saying I should have remained silent and let the queries pile up?

OK, if vagueness is undesirable, then here goes. TARS has had enough of defamatory postings by Peter Roche. These have appeared again and again and again and again and again and again and again. They have not been left up long, but long enough to cause distress and possible damage to recruiting. There is no guarantee that this will not occur again, so TARS is refusing to link to this Board. I consider this an understandable attitude in the circumstances.

I think this is a classic case of 'shooting the messenger'. I was honestly trying my best to avoid conflagration. I think, Ian, that you owe me an apology.
