Not *just* the cursing.
Obviously I can't comment on a specific post, or Dr. Bob's thinking about it.
But pretend you were the recipient.

but it wasn't directed *at* anyone, was it? i thought she was starting a thread and just ranting about something that happened. frankly, i didn't quite follow what she was talking about but i think it's because i was reading so quickly. (i'm an incorrigible skimmer these days. reading too much, i guess.)

I didn't look at the quotation in context.
In context, clearly the person she was talking about wasn't a fellow babbler...
She didn't override the curse filter...
Perhaps Dr. Bob thought a particular religion could feel put down? Although I thought the overall message was just the opposite.
OK, you got me. You'll have to ask Dr. Bob.

You don't know how happy this makes me, Dinah. If *you* don't get it, then I can't possibly feel bad about not getting it. (Idealize Dinah much? So sue me.)Happy dance.
But I'm mad about the injustice of the PBC and sad that crazy t got blocked.
And I'd still really like Dr. Bob to explain himself, although I don't hold out hopes of him actually clarifying anything. In the past when I've had such hopes, I've been sorely disappointed. Wanna give me a pleasant surprise Mr. Dr. Bob sir?

I'm assuming Dr. Bob doesn't want us to make beheaders and murderers and people like that feel unwelcome here.i'm not smiling. i have a quizzical look on my face and a question mark lighted up over my head.

Well, to be fair. The PBC and the block are not necessarily related. A block can also be given after a Please Rephrase that is not rephrased to civility guideline standards. A Please Rephrase is nothing but a conditional Please Be Civil. If you don't take the chance to fix it, it's the same as a PBC.

yeah i know that. that's why i said i was mad about the injustice of the pbc and sad that she got blocked. i see them as separate. i still don't even know why she was blocked. but just getting a pbc when you don't deserve one stinks. so that makes me mad.

Perhaps Dr. Bob could discuss the particulars of this PBC and/or block, and his thinking behind it.

How about just the PBC, for starters. Dr. Bob?

It's a freaking frightening world when *you* get told you aren't being civil, for being unspeakably disgusted by someone being dragged behind a truck and voicing your feelings
It just *is*
It's backwards
It's warped
It's like the feeling I had when I read "The Trial"

i think dr. bob must have been confused when he gave her that pbc. or do you think i'm giving him too much credit? my other thought was that he might have been on drugs.

I'm sure Dr. Bob has a reason, even if we wouldn't come to the same conclusion. It's probably best to hear it first?

But it just doesn't make any sense. And it's aggravating. (I'm misusing the word "aggravating" but I can't find a better one.)

It's not like there won't be plenty of time to berate him after we know his thinking.

I wasn't actually fussing.
I just like to see good indignation well used.
