I think you've probably opened a can of worms here by blocking someone for a statement that might have possibly been a slight value judgement on those who have left.
But, if you're going to take that position, could you please also be equally vigilant about protecting the feelings of those who have stayed from posts that make value judgements on the depth and purpose of the posts currently on board, and the wit and wisdom of those who make them? I've been trying not to be so sensitive about that sort of thing, thinking that people can start their own threads that suit their own tastes. But if you're going to start protecting people's feelings to that extent, could you also protect ours? Then we could feel confident that you will deal with things without our possibly making now PBCable offenses.
Or perhaps you could save yourself a whole lot of problems and just go back to PBC'ing and blocking truly obvious and gross violations of the civility policy.
And to be absolutely clear, are value judgements, even mildly stated now a PBCable offense?
Respectfully,
Dinah
