Hi Folks.

I really appreciate the concern for my welfare.

I have been feeling better over these last few months. I am far from remission, but the trend has been towards recovery. Adding 300mg of lithium has helped prevent mood lability. This was a surprise, as I only began taking lithium to act in the background so as to encourage neurogenesis and neuroprotection. I wasn't expecting a positive effect on my depressisve symptomatology. All in all, things are better.

Unfortunately, I sounded exactly like myself. I do understand your concern that I might have been experiencing an altered state. Personality is an intriguing property of the human condition. It is easy to form conceptual models of others based upon what we observe over time. One only knows what one sees. The rest is interpretation. Perhaps you have never seen certain aspects of my personality. On Psycho-Babble, few have. I hope I have not disappointed.

The main reason why I submitted the posts on Administration challenging Dr. Bob and his mode of website moderation is because it appears to me that his comport acts as an injurious contagion. His behavior fosters an environment of disputation. People who get this bug remain to participate in the contentious drama of the Administration board. The Administration board is not invisible to the rest of the Psycho-Babble community, and is certainly not invisible to the rest of the world. In his hierarchy of priorities, Dr. Bob seems less interested in the quality of support and education than on an autocratic definition of civility and the stoic manner of its enforcement. I am not so much disgusted by the moderation as I am by its historical effects. Very valuable people also became disgusted enough to leave. The quality of education and support has declined in volume steadily. I find Dr. Bob to be recalcitrant in his embracement of a punitive protocol that judges diction and grammar, and applies cold mathematics to calculate the length of punishments.

I support the moderation of Website forums. However, not all methods of moderation are equally effective. Dr. Bob sure likes his own ideas regardless of their obvious deleterious effects over the posting population.

Dr. Bob = affection for his own ideas.

Psycho-Babble = a rapid decline in posting activity as this affection leads to a refractory cause and effect dynamic that people get SICK of and must extricate themselves from. Many people leave in disgust; the same disgust that I experience when I see that nothing changes. People continue to leave because of the moderation methods. As people grow, they refine their perceptions and attitudes as insight evolves. Thus also changes their behavior in order to optimize the way they interact with their environment. The evolution of these interactions require change. The perpetual cycle of cause and effect must be interrupted in order to make corrections.

Dr. Bob = Years of unchanged behavior foster a website that continues to decline measurably.

Einstein = Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

* What are the results that Dr. Bob would like to see happen?

Anyone?
