    3. Dora Smith of Austin, TX: Note: please refer to the email at the bottom of this page. >From just one Rootsweb list administrator I see that you have a prior run-ins with Rootsweb that led them to put you on their 'watch list' for insulting list members. This, on top of your false, offensive, inflammatory and damaging remarks you made regarding my character- suggesting I had mental illness, has compelled me to bring your attacks to Ancestry's corporate offices. Secondly, the NYC-Roots administrator must take responsibility for their lack of leadership in failing to adequately manage this list. Never once did they send out frequent or infrequent reminders to subscribers to refrain from off-topic subjects. Ancestry corporate offices must revisit the policy on how their list administrators are trained and how well or ill they manage their lists. The administrator cultivates an atmosphere of intimidation, cyber bullying and hostility when they sit back idly and allow this type of environment to cultivate. It is no wonder why the number of users to this list has dropped sharply the past few years. People just don't want to become targets of these cyber bullies so they use the list less and rely on other means to get their information. Ancestry's corporate office needs to address the serious problem brought on by Dora Smith and others here or allow the courts to address them and I will be the first one to go in that direction. They will receive a paper letter from me in three days. If anyone else has been offended or unfairly attacked in any manner by Smith or ANY Rootsweb list subscribers, please feel free to email me at [email protected] David Stroebel ----------- From: "Jim Bullock" <[email protected]> Subject: [DNA] Dora Smith--Off Topic Date: Sat, 24 Feb 2007 14:18:50 -0700 Please avoid discussions on the list about individual subscribers. When messages are off topic, offensive, or otherwise objectionable; let me know at my administrator's address: [email protected] In this case, Dora's addresses have been on moderated status for some time, meaning that I have to review them before posting them to the list. This was done because of insults to list members, objectionable comments about a church, and other off-topic messages. Any recent messages you've seen have been reviewed by me and approved for posting. Jim Bullock Administrator, Genealogy-DNA Mail List

    3. I can tell you're the type who runs into traffic without looking- and a problem child. If you can't see why I included that email you never will. If you don't like my post don't read them. If you keep replying to my emails I'll keep slamming you back.
