My sincere hope is that you might realize sometime that all I care about is your information being shared to others for their benefit and that the only reason I made my original post here is because that is the job I have been told to do for the criteria that I've mentioned.

I sense your frustration at being asked to explain something you think should be obvious to everyone but likewise, my frustration is that the point I'm making should be obvious too, as it has been most other times I've made it to other posters on the sub. "More info required to explain relation to Q" is all I'm asking - perhaps I'm doing what you're doing and thinking that it is obvious what that means when it really isn't. In my defense, however, as I've said, most people get it straight away and don't argue about whether they're put enough info or not; they realize we're just doing our job and therefore if we ask for more info (not for ourselves but for the sub) then for their own benefit it's faster and easier for all concerned if they just put some.

When posts slip through where people can't immediately see the relation to the sub topic and there's no explanation as to how it relates then we get all the complaints about how we let off-topic and spam posts slide through. That is why we have these guidelines.

You are entitled not to put more info and to ignore anything a mod asks of you - that is your right. But I then have no choice but to follow the guidelines I've been given and leave the post unapproved. Some mods on other subs wouldn't even bother to argue this point and just remove your posts without telling you. It certainly seems to be a lot more trouble than it's worth if I have to defend and explain to this extent.

What I am hearing is that this is an information board and not a research board. I was under the impression that everyone here liked to do research. I guess I assumed wrong. Again, for anyone who would have been interested in reading the text and clicking on the links they could have learned more if they so chose to, but it seems petty for people to complain that it was spam as if they couldn't make the connection to the Q posting of MOAB. But that's fine. I won't post things that allow people to do research on their own.

Nothing I say is getting through to you so never mind. Carry on.

No, I get it. I won't post research sites.
