> To my knowledge no changes have been made since the new rules went into effect, and the information given to you by the deputy is correct.Which was you by the way
> I believe it's the specific reasons for the PDNP request that are supposed to be communicated to Dr. Bob or the deputies, I guess, off board.This is NOT what the official rules say at all, nothing about privately. I think I have made my point. How a deputy be one if you don't know the rules and you make your own version of them? Then they get upset when the poster complain about it. This is a perfect example.
> I feel a bit pressured re the response time. Please don't pressure deputies or post negative conclusions you may have come to as to the reasons answers aren't immediately forthcoming, even if a deputy has visited the board. There can be many. A deputy might be consulting with other deputies or Dr. Bob, a deputy might have time to answer some posts but not all, a deputy might be thinking of how to word a reply, a deputy might feel another deputy or even a knowledgeable poster might be better able to answer a question, a deputy may not always read every post on a board they visit at any given visit or even at all. Nor does a deputy have a requirement to read every post or answer every question. Dr. Bob has said that a civil reminder can be given if no response is received within a couple of days.
