> I admit that at times, I have felt that Dr. Bob seems to be way too strict. But I would rather because of the type of board this is that if he is going to be extreme, it be in the direction of being too strict instead of being too lax.
That's one issue. Also, I think I've needed to become more strict as the board's become more active. As things happen faster, things go wrong faster. It's like driving a car, the faster you go, the quicker you have to react.
> Still, I think the poster on psychobabble had a good idea when she said that if someone is blocked, there should be an appeal process because sometimes it may really be unfair to block that person. On one of the email lists I belong to, our moderator is very strict about not flaming people but she doesn't get on you for one post like Dr. Bob seems to. She realizes people can have bad days but if she sees a pattern, you will definately hear from her.
I don't block people for one post, I always (well, almost always) first ask them to please be civil.
People are free to post appeals here or, if they've already been blocked, to email me. And others are free to voice their opinions either way...
