Three items I would like to offer up for consideration:
1. Forum moderators should be identified as being moderators. That would have mitigated some of the misunderstandings.
2. Also forum moderators, because of their authority here, should be held to a higher standard concerning wording of their "official" posts.
3. Also, because moderators are also forum members, it is incumbent on them to make it very clear when they are posting an opinion as a forum member and when they are exercising their authority as agents of website owner.
