In reply to Rules - What constitutes an infraction?, posted by SLS on June 16, 2009, at 14:49:51
Infractions:
1. Actual words, not intent. In therapy, people learn that they can't mind read. One shouldn't have to mind read here.
2. Sarcasm directed towards a person. Sarcasm is easy to detect. Sarcasm employs actual words. Therefore, #2 is in line with #1.
3. Encouragement of suicidal behaviors, self-injurious behavior.
When an argument breaks out, what should happen? As Deputy Dinah did, so we should do: immediately move the argument over to administration (or a board specifically for hashing things out). As soon as someone has made a move to do that, no one should be able to continue to make comments about it after the fact in the main boards, and especially not as side notes in a message that is primarily not about the argument.
