-----------------------------------------
I regret being ignorant of posting policies in this instance.I apologized to those people whom I feel I owe one.
Here's the thing:
I have been confused about this whole affair as it related to my act, including what I thought were civil and carefully chosen words. This represents an opportunity for you to explain explicitly what you want from us. A few years ago, it was your wish to have us work out our differences with what was tantamount to policing ourselves for infractions of civility without the immediate intervention of deputies. I do hope this jars your memory. I thought I was performing in that role. I do regret taking on this role if my memory fails me, and I don't know what else to say but to I apologize in shame, in which case I also owe an apology to Alexandra.
My response here may not satisfy the administration here. I don't mind getting a PBC for my actions. I would just like to be treated with the same protocol as you seem to have chosen to enforce your rules of civility with others, namely, giving one warning before acting to block me from posting.
I did sincerely thank Alexandra for her statements here. I do hope they were taken that way. If they were ambiguous, I certainly do apologize to anyone who interpreted them as sarcasm, including Alexandra. So far, no one has reacted that way and posted such sentiments.
"I thank you for describing specific instances when the moderation of this website has hurt people. It is very helpful to refine one's perspective on the posting policies here."
