Past Presidents have asked for the same courtesy. How is it discourteous? If you are not looking over the shoulder of the person typing, how do you even know who is posting where? There is nothing discourteous in posting, or as far as that goes, talking on the phone if you are quiet and no one hears you. There is no valid reason to claim the ability to tell others what to do on their personal time, and with their personal efforts. As a matter of fact, what business is it of the board who posts to whom? If it were up to me, (and it is not), I would welcome a camera on the board, with a live feed to the membership as well as the public. Now, there would be something that would require accountability. I think there is a serious problem when people try to control others, unless it effects them and is illegal, or against some established rule.
