Seems like calling myself an unofficial mentor has ruffled quite a few feathers around here. For that, if I bruised any egos, I do apologize. Yes, I realize that the definition of “mentor“ would fit most of the regulars on here – maybe all of them. But, understood that there is a certain status that some feel comes from that word. I really didn’t want to step on any toes. The last thing that I would want to do is disrupt anyone’s feelings of self-importance. if I disappear from these boards, it is because me calling myself an unofficial mentor became too much for some people. Yikes.

Don't feel too bad. I had one of my replies completely removed and not just edited. In my personal messages it just directed me to the community guidelines link. Didn't even tell me exactly why. I read all the info on that link and still didn't know what "rule' I had broken. No naming, no shaming except a caution on buying from a certain region.
Apparently someone didn't like my reply. The truth is the truth though.
😂 Rocco, when the Soapbox was still alive, I received 'several' edit marks, had a few edited, and at least one reply completely removed. Now that the Soapbox has been put to rest, I have been able to stay pretty much well behaved😉
