well, i did have a long, important post but somehow i hit a button and it was gone. i'll try again.....
i'm assuming most of us here have psoted something we later regretted (be it personal info about ourselves or just posting something we wish we hadn't.). with this medium, all we have attached to us is our name and those words we write. why not be able to start anew after putting things here that we regret (be it drunk posting, misunderstandings, ect.)?
this particular subject is something that comes up time after time (so i would guess it is kinda a big deal in babble land. perhaps i could be wrong, but this subject comes up quite often. i could be being overly dramatic and perhaps no one thinks it a big deal. either way, if my wording somehow offended you, then you need to deal with that. it's not anything i was saying to be offensive, but perhaps you took it that way? i honestly feel as if you are somewhat upset with me. am i wrong?)
so, if someone feels outed, does it really matter too much what they did to feel that way anyway? i mean, isn't the point of this place to be supportive? and sometimes that can seem impossible if someone feels ignored. why not give them a chance to start over again, without also adding the burden of thinking that it's their fault.
