Officials shall uphold the honor and dignity of the profession in all interaction with student-athletes, coaches, athletic directors, school administrators, colleagues, and the public.
I feel that we don't do enough of that. especially what's in bold..

An internet interaction is not the same interaction that we have with people directly. There is a reason “real” people speak directly to a real doctor (who they can verify there education and license) for medical advice or diagnosis instead of talking to a doctor on they only talk to on the internet. It is also honorable to tell the truth about the reality of a situation (you have not been able to deny what I am saying is true, you just take issue with what I said and the way I said it). Just because you say you are an official, does not make you an official in real life. You are taking these codes of ethics out of context and applying them to something that is not related. Also I do not have to in any profession agree with or take advice from someone just because they are in they hold the same profession that I do. Because you want to listen to any Tom, Dick or Harry that tells you something here, does not mean I have to buy those point of views to follow some “code of ethics.”
