YEAH ME TOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want you to acknowledge the harm done by your negligent moderation. I may be particularly vulnerable (That is mine to deal with. But, considering the population here, it's yours to deal with, too.), but your unfairness has hurt me deeply.
YEAH ME TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You ought not to treat me more harshly simply because I have asked you to treat us all the same.
THINK THAT'LL EVER HAPPEN???????????????
And you know very clearly what (and who) I'm talking about.
CONGRATSOS ON YOUR SPECIAL TREATMENT FROM BOB !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT LEAST BOB AIN'T LONELY

> I'm sorry that you don't have time to answer each poster's questions individually. I feel dis-respected by that. I've felt that before though so it's nothing new. To combine snippets from three different writers into one answer seems to me to be typical of someone not wanting to go to too much trouble concerning something that is important to this board. Here come the I messages. I think you're full of it, Bob. I feel that your arrogance concerning your position of being the "administrator" is going to be your downfall. I believe that you court the little kissy-kissy group and you are threatened by those who don't necessarily fall into line with them. I hope that I'm not perceived as being civil and I truly hope that you are offended. I've given some thought to it and had discussion with colleagues and you just aren't worth the energy this is taking. You did not learn one thing from the other incident...unless it was more ways to be evasive. For all the good people who've left this place, hold on, I'm coming. (Sam the Sham)

Ah, OK, I can see that.

Reading and re-reading some posts doesn't mean others won't be missed...

Well, they didn't approve what I submitted, so as I've been saying, this site is not currently considered research. I'm disappointed, but some posters prefer not being involved in research...

Please don't jump to conclusions about others or post anything that could lead them to feel accused or put down. The last time you were blocked, it was for 2 weeks, so this time I'm making it for 4.
If you have any questions or comments about this or about posting policies in general, or are interested in alternative ways of expressing yourself, please see the FAQ:
http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/faq.html#civil
or email me, or post a follow-up here after your block is over.
> It's beyond the pale that you can't receive the people who have different views and approaches than yourself.
My philosophy is that civility is important. Unfortunately, that means this site isn't for everyone. But there are plenty of alternatives...

> Bob<<<<<< Oh, I guess we meant different things here. When you first wrote about this, I think you were responding to questions about whether or not you also disregard the good in a post when you've spotted a potential incivility. You stated that you do try to understand context, even if it means reading and re-reading. From that I gathered that it could be the thread you were reading (or sometimes re-reading), to understand the context.

Why was I blocked for 24 weeks for asking someone if this incident was true and this poster is allowed to post that it was a fact without any action from you? Do you not think the the person about whom this "fact" is stated might feel accused???????????????

Oh and if that remark makes you feel put down or accused, then perhaps you could look inwardly as the actions were YOURS, I'm merely quoting FACT, not expressing an opinion.

Sorry, was it from the email address you currently have registered? I'm not always able to get to email right away, but I can't even find one from you. I did recently lose some... Could you send it again? Thanks,

Hi Nikki.I don't think it is productive for you to invest yourself in a conflict that drains you of so much energy and is of so little consequence. Please save your energy to continue posting here regularly. I would feel deprived were you not to.
