It is saddest when we hurt those who are suffering the most.

I would not so much use the term we as it is likely select individuals, that could likely be named as there are not many people who react to situations as described in the thread.

Going to sleep. I hope the gentlemen feels better in the future - sad story, best of luck, Tom.

When Leon says 'it reflects poorly on our board too', he wisely sees that
we at Net54 are a community that will be tainted by the few who are part of
the community. Sadly, there are some who have very limited awareness of
the pain of others. There are some who have little awareness of the potential
pain they may be offering to others. Gratefully, there are many who struggle
with the ramifications of what they may be doing at times. You admit that
you fall into this category by sharing with the group your own personal questioning of your offering to the OP. Sometimes our personal questionings or larger struggles after the fact enable us to have larger struggles before the fact---which can result in a higher good at times.
all the best,
barry
