Jack (sg) had in subject thread at his place actions by himself. My take of his action set was that some of his actions were unjust; some of his actions were within his rights as property owner. I am with the assumption that unjust actions do not become just by fact of his being property owner.
A land property owner may block a HG pilot from using owned land; but if in the process of communicating and then installing the blocking mechanisms, the property owner steals valuables from the HG pilot, then some injustice becomes evident. The case becomes clearer when the HG pilot was already admitted to do hang gliding on the property; and then during such hang gliding the property owner reverses direction; of course the HG pilot should stop HG when owner bans him or her from the property. But such whole process gives the property owner no license to steal value from HG pilot. That I was banned was an action within Jack's right as forum owner; that Jack used phony reasons and style and expressions and methods in a manner that stole reputation was not necessary to protect his right to ban a poster. Jack said I broke certain rules that I did not break; he let stand that I was a rule breaker; such were acts of stealing in my estimation. Jack let abuse be piled on a polite poster; such was within his power, but such was not fair relative to his agreements with people.

I am with belief that in forums it is often too easy for a poster to get seemingly behind the veil of belief and motivation and intention and too loosely make sentences over another's beliefs, motivations, and intentions while unfortunately neglecting to robustly preface such with: "It is my personal opinion that so-and-so believes such or so or was motivated by such or so or intended this or that." So, when the discourse runs up against this challenge and confusion, it might be polite to retrace and put that robust preface up, if applicable. Bob has offered to do some of that retrace posting of such preface, if such would help over some statements made. The "why" question from a child often stumps parents; I was so stumped; how far should I go in answering my child when she asked, "Why is the sky blue?" Are participants in a mix assuming that the big preface is understood? If not commonly understood, then mistakes of mutual understanding may be made. And, if that preface is not practiced some in the mix, then participants might even forget the structure operating. I do not have absolute God vision over what I am writing now as any more than my approximate opinion.
