"Since I'm the one being requested to make determinations, is it a concern that with more scrutiny I'll make more negative determinations?"
I don'tthink thats the problem at all. I can only speak for myself here, but it is starting to feel like harrassment. And from the ton of supportive emails i have had from people, I am not alone in this feeling.
I want to be able to post my feelings about thing without them being PARAPHRASED and their meaning changed. I think, above everything else, its the paraphrasing that upsets me most. To take a sentence, remove some parts, change a few words subtly, and BANG, you have a WHOLE new meaning.
As an example, I write a post to Noa, which contains the sentance "sometimes I have the feeling that I hate you, but its not a true feeling" it can be copied and bought over here to say that [I hate you] which you have to agree is not what I said.. If someone had not read the original post, they could easily end up believing that I told Noa I hated her.
Small example, but you get the point I hope.
I simply can't have every single word I say questioned. Its as simple as that. If the post stayed where ever I posted it, and you gave me a PBC then I'm happy with that. But, I don't want someone who is NOT a moderator in any shape or form, to start copying and pasting my words in a form of tittle tattle. I left school 13 years ago, and thought I had left telling tales to the teacher in the playground.
