<p dir="ltr">Dear CEO,</p>
<p dir="ltr">Your action is a welcome development and I must applaud it. However, I think its a little belated. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I don't know how possible that is, but I believe that either you or the rest of AfriNIC staff have been following all lists. If so, you will agree with me that a lot of violation of the code of conduct document you quoted has been going on with no action taken by AfriNIC. There has probably been words far worst than this one sited. And by the way, unnecessarily lengthy right ups are also a violation.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I would therefore appeal to you, so your action is not misjudged. How about making a solid proclamation that henceforth all such violations of misconduct will no longer be tolerated. After this proclamation, you can then start monitoring the list and carrying out the necessary action required. At this, no one will look at it as though you were particular about a person. This is just my humble appeal. Kindly consider.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Thank you.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Christian. </p>

We have a code of conduct published at <<a href="https://afrinic.net/en/community/code-of-conduct" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://afrinic.net/en/<wbr>community/code-of-conduct</a>>.<br>
<br>
Many messages on the rpd list appear to violate the code of conduct, but we have not taken action in the past. One recent message <<a href="https://lists.afrinic.net/pipermail/rpd/2017/007510.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://lists.afrinic.net/<wbr>pipermail/rpd/2017/007510.html</a><wbr>> was so severely out of line that I decided that I must take action.<br>
<br>
Marcus Adomey’s posts to the RPD list will be moderated for two weeks.<br>
<br>
When I say his posts will be moderated, I mean that any attempt to post will result in the message being quarantined until a list moderator has time to examine it. The moderator may either approve or reject the message, depending on its content. Messages that are polite and constructive will be approved, while messages that appear to violate the code of conduct, or stray close to the boundaries, will be rejected.<br>
