[NCSG-EC] Vaibhav

[Robin Gross]

I didn’t interpret Milton’s message as being hurtful but more of what we face every election - people imaging ways of using the existing ballot and rules to achieve various results.  It isn’t the first time we’ve had abstain / NOTA conversations and probably won’t be the last.

Best,
Robin

I am well aware of how much he would like me not to run, but to suggest to the list that they send me a message about how unwelcome I am, by voting abstain....well, besides being hurtful, I think it is a kind of electioneering that ought to be discouraged.  Encourage people to vote for your candidate of choice, sure.

I think he needs to be reminded off-list of the expected standards of behavior at ICANN and encouraged to withdraw what he said and eventually apologize. If he keeps lashing on, then to me thats a case of temporary suspension from the mailing list with further review on our side.

His point could be made without certain words, irrespective of their being "true" or not. But Vaibhav's surely went way over the line as far as standards of behavior are concerned, much more than Milton ever did.
