    This is the second insensitive 'Get a blog',thread locking reply from a mod in as many weeks Ive come across...

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055529917

    How on Earth can anybody not think this is relevant to Teaching and Lecturing ?It is genuinely moving and inspiring.As a manly male I was 'almost' in tears . But the Mod came along then and spoiled it all...Does the Boards Mod induction course include an insensitivity / 'big old meaney' module or are they chosen with those inate traits ?

    It was chain mail. The sort of crap that is sent as spam to thousands of e-mail addresses.

    I completely agree with the Mods decision.

    No, but we do include a "go read snopes.com" module, which has come in quite useful.

    Any time I get anything like this by email I send back the tale of Little Billy, the boy with just a head and a burlap sack for a body.

    Chain mail's a no-no ytareh
