  The thing is that when I see some of the posts and nobody reported it and then it has 5 replies on it, I leave it alone as people have already responded to the post and it is more of a nusance from the moderators deleting it rather than somebody typing in CAPS.

  Joel,
  
  Thanks for your reply. That's why I didn't delete it or locke it because people were responding with replies.

  Joel,
  
  Nice try on Chadwicks part there was one reply from myfrogger at the time the post should have been deleted:
  
  frogger: "You may want to look at your finances again as you stated that you do not make enough money. If you can't make the mortgage payment you are going to have a problem.
  
  Maybe others will have some constructive advise. GOOD LUCK"
  
  which is not significant enough to warrant not deleting the post.
  
  Chadwick: "By this time, several replies had already been posted to the topic. So I posted the following:"
  
  If you note Chadwick made her reply after only one post was made from a member, so this is not where there were a string of posts before she decided to ignore the rules.
  
  As far as old posts go this proves nothing, if it is not reported then it may slip by, however when a Moderator is notified and chooses to ignore the rules then they choose to ignore the rules for there own agenda.
  
  There was not 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 replies there was one and this one showed up awhile after I sent the report this post message.
  
  "However, Joel, this brings me to the question. Why was a legitimate topic, OHIO KEEPING THE HOUSE, such a big deal that 2 other Moderators here felt the need to take public action beyond what I took yesterday? "
  
  Because Chadwick chose to make the rest of the Moderators who know their job look bad and opened up a area where first time posters can chose to ignore the rules, just post on the forums Chadwick is on make sure you have your caps lock on.
  
  If she wants to tell the story about her not someone else then she should post her facts correctly.

  I gave the poster a warning and didn't identify the person who had hit the Report the Post button. You chose to interject yourself when it was neither warranted nor appropriate.
  
  And because of your interjecting yourself, a TCI member who had posted legitimate topic and questions was about to "move on to a site that is a little more concerned with the question at hand rather than whether some one is using capital letters..."
  
  Fortunately, I was able to calm her down so she didn't yank her topic and she got some quality reply posts to it from other TCI members.
  
  And as you well know, my name is Nancy Chadwick. If you can't remember the first name, then just remember "Ms. Chadwick.."

  Chadwick,
  
  When you lock a post it is spelled lock not locke, so when it comes to names if you are insuating that I had anything to do with the post being locked, you are wrong.
  
  12:21 tlatsa posted -The Original Post hardly counts as several posters it was the original.
  
  "12:41 myfrogger posted" - Member Post
  "12:44 ltatsa posted" - Poster posted this, it not considered a different member posting this is the original poster who violated the rules posting the first time.
  
  "12:45 I posted" - It should have stopped here when you were aware it was in violation, where are the several posts in the above time line?
  
  It's your credibility on the line here: You told Joel there were several posts so where are they? Did you delete some we don't know about?
  
  These posts were after the fact you were aware that it was in violation of the rules as evidenced by the time lines:
