> Is there a protocol about posters who post on other boards?
No, Dr. Bob has never taken any actions related to uncivil posts on other sites (I think that's what you meant by other boards?) even if they are about PB or Babblers. Of course, we have no control over what others post elsewhere on the web. But you knew that :-)
>I have a hard time seeing a story that is being told here, being told differently elsewhere.
Yes. I could see how that might happen.
>It seems to me it would be uncivil to say "but you said X over on ABC-Board."
Yes, *here* it might be, depending how it was worded. I suppose you could post that, or something else, at another site, depending on what their rules are.
>Mostly I have just not responded at all but it feels like we are being lied to in some way. I don't know... And I have a really hard time with posters who talk about Babble in a way that doesn't feel true either.
Although general questions about overall policy are still fine here (and I think your initial question qualifies)I'd recommend using the Notification button here to go into further specifics, in order to avoid the possibility a Babbler or Babblers may think it is about them, and feel accused or put down. For example, someone could feel accused of lying....
> Perhaps I'm just being sensitive today.
That's allowed :-)
