Hello vgood -

I am truly sorry to inform you that because of your ongoing inflammatory comments on MATLAB Central, we have been forced to remove your ability to post  to our community areas including Newsreader and File Exchange.

Regretfully,
Helen Chen
MATLAB Central Community Manager

Understood.

Now, here is Marco making that same kind of inflammatory comment, this one is in apparent retaliation for a comment Jos made in the newsgroup:
http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/7465

So, are you going to tolerate this? Its a repeated behaviour. Yet you cover for Marco.  You apply your policies non-uniformly. In short, you are not fair. 

People don't like obvious bias and yours is going to be pointed out frequently from here on. It is just a little bit too blatant to fly. You disable various user comments but allow Marco to comment completely inappropriately as he pleases. You stand by while he self-downloads his files until he ranks in the top-10. You carefully look the other way.

Nope, that is unacceptable. I reject your admonishment. Shame on you Helen.

V.Good
