If people ridicule and hurl insults, this will not be a safe haven.If people cannot control their actions, words, and behavior, they probably should not post in this Forum.

It's not a threat. It's a Rule. Actually, it's a modification of the Rules we already have in place. People need to know that if they open up here, they won't be subject to ridicule (or at least that it won't be tolerated). I love the idea. In the long run, this Forum will prosper because of it.

Randall,I've seen the moderator deem benign comments "insults" several times since you first posted the notice about stricter policy a few days ago. Someone claimed to have psychic awareness about me-- it was wrong-- and when I said "you are not psychic," that was labeled an insult. How can anyone have confidence in this arrangement, with an eye to the specifics of the current situation? IP: Logged |

I make the decision to ban. Not the Mods. I think that comment would be okay. It depends on the context. But words like "fraud" would be a bannable offense.IP: Logged |

I totally do not understand the point of banning someone at first offense.Cannot see eye to eye with you. I will probably avoid this subforum. Cheers.  IP: Logged |

Faith, please don't tell me you are still going on about that. You are making it into something it isn't.. blowing it way out of proportion. I told you, it wasn't directed at you and I never read your energy whatsoever. And I wouldn't even want to anyway!I am going to have to ban myself just because you act like a five year old with nothing better to do and I don't want to be around your constant whining. What are you trying to accomplish? Take away people's ability to oppose any argument you have at all? I never even once called you or anyone else a name. Yet LeeLoo called me a sheep. Is that not an insult? IP: Logged |

No of course not. I am against the new banning policy. But you should be more careful now. You cannot get away with calling someone a whiny five year-old with nothing better to do. Maybe you will just get a warning.

Sorry Faith,But I told you repeatedly that my comment about chakras has nothing to do with you. Yet you continue to say it was directed towards you. What kind of behavior is this?? You refuse to take what I say seriously, as if I have a reason to lie about the things I said. It seems like you are just fishing for trouble when I let the conversation go already. You are still stirring it up and will not let it be. IP: Logged |

'Someone claimed to have psychic awareness about me'That is stating that I said that I read your energy and did so with psychic ability. I did not and I told you repeatedly my chakra comment was not directed at you and it did not come from any type of psychic energy at all. IP: Logged |

Let's try to move on, Faith. Randall is doing the best he can to accomodate people. He is in law school. He is busy. He does not need to deal with this continual drip, drip, drip from you.

Usually on forums it seems to come down to blatant name-calling or directly attacking the person (or group) and not the argument. But something can be insulting without being a direct insult - which is just a grey area that I don't think can possibly be moderated.IP: Logged |

Athene, sorry for calling you a sheep. You attacked Faith and me and other people, it's not nice to attack people with your personal issues when they are protesting for something. You either join the protest, say nothing or join the anti-protest thread, Faith had opened one. You told me all I do with my life is discussing synastry and doing tarot sex spreads (it was just a thread though, huge success BTW, sex is nice). You can't attack people and expect no reaction. Plus, sometimes you speak like you believe you are the holder of universal truth. I hope you don't genuinely believe that. Nevertheless, calling you a sheep was below our enlightened level here and I apologize.IP: Logged |

These "little insult" things are ridiculous! In my opinion, we should go back to Moderate Moderation. People can talk about what they want. Threads are closed when they draw blood. If we keep it this way, it will be one little insult war after another. That is MY opinion. I have no power to do anything but it is my opinion that I am putting out there.

Okay, if that's a "little insult" to you, leave it be and don't have athene banned. I'm fine with this thread being locked. I have nothing more to say on the topic. IP: Logged |
