What a Shame

And what truth would you like us to tell?
The blog is an AOL staff initiative. This is an editor-run, unofficial forum. One doesn't replace the other.
Bit out of date, aren't you?
It's a shame that Metas are not required to treat people in the forum the same way they must treat editors.
"Communicate in a courteous and respectful manner. When disagreements among editors arise, metas are expected to keep their cool and avoid flaming any member of the community, including one another. Agree to respectfully disagree when others have opposing opinions. Metas should help negotiate consensus decisions, and go along with prevailing opinions even when they don't agree with their personal point of view.
Do not communicate in a hostile, aggressive, passive aggressive, sarcastic, or combative manner in order to intimidate, berate, insult, or otherwise irritate another editor who opposes a meta's point of view. Metas have significant influence on others. Metas should not abuse their influence by using tactics that are meant to belittle or demean another editor. This constitutes not being able to work well within the community, and Staff reserves the right to remove your meta privileges if such communication methods are used repeatedly." - Taken from

No disrespect intended, the reply seems a little sarcastic, and very argumentative, without any goal of resolution in sight.
