See what I mean about a can of worms?
> On this occasion, however, I agree with Shelli: I think the present sad circumstances justify a highly exceptional reprieve for Trouble and Zo - a possibility for growth through continuing to participate in the present, emotionally sensitive, situation
And the present sad circumstances also justify a less civil atmosphere for everyone else?

What exception did I not make for Lili? (See what I mean about a can of worms?)
> Merely hinting that you may turn an exceptional blind eye to anyone who posts for those who are blocked is not enough, IMHO.
Sorry, what are you proposing that I do instead?
