> If I understand correctly the issue here is that there is a belief that uncivil posts on the thread were missed?
yes. First, the poster posted on two boards, so to me, thats 2 punishments, right? the poster claimed matt had no validity to his posts and that he was high drama and that he shoudlnt be posting and so on and so on... Is that appropriate? and appropritate times 2?

> Or is it that you'd like him to comment specifically on the issue of people claiming to know someone personally and giving off board information about them. And whether that is considered uncivil under board policy? In other words, a clarification on board policy?Its both. I think that is a very real and scary issue and this person implied to know that Matt was on a suicide watch... whatever that means. And then said, in time I will reveal who i am. That is teasing. there is play teasing and then there is provocative teasing and this person was teasing in a way that was scary. i know who you are and i know what you are doing, kind of scary. That issue NEEDS to be addressed and or clarified.

> So that if someone knew me off board, or claimed to know me off board, and said things that I'd prefer not to disclose on board, would that be uncivil? Is that the issue?Yes and no, that is an issue yes. BUT this person claimed things that were not true, they claimed information that they had no true knowledge of at least thats what it appears. unless, yes, this person does somehow know Matt. But from what I gather, Matt does not know this person and this person implied to know Matt and have personal information regarding him. There appear to be several civilty issues here.
Do you agree?
