I have informed deputies including you over a month ago, maybe 6 weeks or more of several posts (now are most in the archives because it has been so long) that I thought were uncivil. You told me you were busy at the time, and would get to it, but you weren't the only deputy notified, all of them were.
I have not heard back since then about the notifications, and yes my babble mail has been on and you and the deputies have my personal email, along with Dr. Bob.I also see it as a problem that blocked posters can't use the notification button.
So if the new rules are that we (the babblers) are suppose to police ourselves and notify the deputies, then are told they are too busy to deal with the notifications, what are we suppose to do? Notify, Dr. BOb? Well yes I did that too, NO communications or attempts have been make to even address my notifications have been made.
So the notification system is not working as I see it, or only certain notifications are even reviewed. So it makes some of who have been on the receiving end of veiled uncivilness, to take the law into our own hands. So yes, my actions have been harsh to some, but it the problems were dealt with, there would be no need to take such extreme measures.
So if we are going to have these rules, and the I statement rules are VERY picky rules, then we need to have them enforced for everyone.
I believe it would be a good idea that if deputy sees a thread that could be trouble, and they warn someone on that thread, they should at least be available to review all the messages after the warnings. If there isn't time to police the whole thread or the whole problem, then all should be ignored, because it isn't fair that only some posters get warned and no other who commit the same uncivil acts.
This is why I find it best to leave here, it isn't safe for me, because I am seen as a trouble poster, my posts are viewed harsher, and more likely to have the notification button pushed by a member who don't like me.My notifications are not taken seriously or ignored. There is no safety for me here, and that is why it is my final goodbye. I have found a couple of sites who are understanding of those abuse survivors, and PTSD. They offer help and support and understand how it feels to have gone through what I have. They understand the reactions that PSTD causes, and is supportive anyway. I feel this site accept some reactions to various mental issues than others. To me it isn't PTSD, and abusive survivor friendly. I am so glad I have a place to go that can support me.
Having babble policed by other babblers will not work, it will caused prejudice and unfairness because some members will get away with things, and others will always be sanctioned.
