The position of FTSC member, in regards to the comment (by Ward, I 
think), that he was "probably" qualified for that position.

As for my ruling, I just figured that if an IC/ZC, and an RC who can't 
use a proper character set can post bullshit here that they make up, so 
can I.  In fact, I hereby rule that I can permanently do whatever I 
want, just as they can.

LOL, agreed.  I'm sure he *CAN* fix the character set issue, but 
purposely chooses not to, because...... he's an asshole.  That part is 
certified by official ruling (by me) to be true.  ;-)
