I don't claim to have any answers to this problem and I am an outsider in
the context of administration, continued reading of this thread has brought
me to one simple conclusion, this situation needs a radical departure from
current norm. As I've stated, I had a problem 6 years ago in that channel,
not as a user, as someone willing to help others. That's 6 years. Stephen
Smoogen has stated here that this issue has been ongoing for 10+ years.
Looking at all the tickets involved regarding the OP that this current
discussion started about literally makes me shake my head. It's quite clear
that the solutions, if any, prior to this discussion, hasn't worked. In my
opinion only a all encompassing definite change will actually correct this,
along with the framework for dealing with any future issues that may arise
that the steps are well documented so there is no question as to what is
needed to be done which hopefully brings and end to all of this.
