Is this a terrible misuse of this board?

Lynn,

What is your problem? Why can’t a person ask other what’s a good place to get employment at? It’s a valid question (no less so than a lot of the garbage that is posted here)

I can’t stand people like you who are such control freaks. It’s not like I was putting my resume online or anything. If I had worded it a little different would it have been better? Anyway I doubt that this message will ever see the light of day (God forbid actually QUESTION something around here) So get a life, censure me if you must (it’s not like it’ll be that hard to get around it anyway) I’m sure it will make your day.

Please do **not** end a sentence with a preposition at the Straight Dope Message Board. Also, this is the wrong forum for personal attacks and/or complaints about moderator actions. Any further comments should be in The BBQ Pit forum.
