Just where did some of these moderators come from that were handpicked
for the rpm group? One dances to the tune of his own drum and doles
out and slams posters hiding behind software and another blatantly
uses HTML code in direct violation of the charter. Sure seems like the
integrity of the group is going down hill daily. I bet its all because
of their accepting CArol Gulley into the group as a sane and
reasonable poster......Integrity hell, rpm is loosing any credibility
they had with this crap and their moderators.

HTML is prohibited in part C03 of the group's charter. I'm not sure
why
one of the moderators is using it, and why HTML posts are being
allowed
through. I sometimes use a client that can't read HTML too.

Well It was mentioned Moderators do not have to follow the charter.
