David Rose (And Yaegan Doran) Falsely Accusing The Sys-Func Moderator Of Impropriety

I now seem to be blocked from posting to sysfunc. Seems it’s become just another blog.

To be clear, Rose is not blocked from posting to the Sys-Func email list. Rose subscribed to the list using one of his email accounts, but tries to post messages to the list from a different unsubscribed email account. Because of this, the list software does not recognise him as a list member and so his posts are not distributed to list members. That is, Rose is merely blaming someone else for his own incompetence. Rose can easily remedy the situation himself by posting to the list from his subscribed email address, or by subscribing his unsubscribed address to the list.

Postscript:

Yaegan Doran later echoed these sentiments on sys-func on 21 Mar 2022, 16:12:

Just forwarding the below on behalf of David Rose as his emails are seemingly still not being allowed through to the sysfunc list.

To be clear, before Doran posted this, Rose had been sent a notice advising him that his sending address was not subscribed, followed by an invitation to subscribe his sending address to the sys-func list. He has not acted on the invitation. (The moderator can only initiate the subscription process; only the subscriber can complete the subscription process.)

It might be added that Doran himself did not allow a post on the ASFLA site which informed colleagues how to join the sys-func list. (The information was promptly removed very soon after it was posted.)
