I knew I shouldn't have posted, and should have kept my nose out of it. My attempts at peacemaking are rarely successful.
Brio was open on the board about being a new name for an old poster. Nothing I wrote about in my post came from off board communication, although the fact that I did know who Brio was might have helped me in the interpretation. This is one reason I really don't like name changes. :( I can usually figure them out, but I think it helps this sort of misunderstanding to develop because one poster is posting with the benefit of familiarity, while the other is not.
My recognition of Brio's motives came from the Upset and Frightened and Leaving Forever post, not from anywhere else. Brio announced the intention of writing an uncivil post to Bob to get blocked because of being upset and frightened.
I hope I haven't added to your distress, too. I know I've added to Brio's. The road to hell and all of that.....
