Whether you believe it or not, my reply to you on pc and my comments here are not so much directed to you but to the situations. I don't want to see you get blocked, I just want to see the rules applied the same way to everybody. I only see what I read here. I never saw your original post where you used that word. In Atticus' case, he inadvertantly forgot the *, it was not done intentionally and it seemed weird that Atticus only got blocked after he stated he was taking a break from the board.
Im my own case, I am not aware that my block was for any more than me making the comment that I thought Lou's actions were insensitive, even though not intentional. That was what the whole fracas was about, that comment was made several times and I do not recall even one time that Dr. Bob said that my block was for any other reason. I did not and still do not, to some degree understand the *I* statement. I personally didn't see anything wrong with my comment at the time. It was not my intention to break the civility rules, so please, lets compare apples with applies and not pretend that mine are oranges.
You stated that you received a few PBCs. I received one and then I was blocked AND I did not even see that PBC and Dr Bob is aware of that fact. I only saw it when I discovered I was blocked, which shocked me and it stated that I had previously received a PBC so I went looking for it. Tell me how my situation is different from yours. Have you not seen my questions on social to trying to understand how to use the *I* statement? If not, you can find them in the archives. In fact, for that matter, that entire thread was initiated by ME, trying to get clarification to what was considered civil to post, ironic that I should be blocked in such a thread, don't you think?
I don't know what is going on around here, I just see what I see and from my viewpoint, I see injustice, again, not at you personally, I have nothing against you, but at the situations involved. And what about Lou who walked away from that situation with absolutely nothing. Was that fair to me? Don't tell me that I got blocked because I lashed out because that came after my block was over, to which I didn't get blocked.
So, why does Atticus get blocked and not you. You say that Bob says that the word you used is acceptable? I do not see the logic in that at all. This would be the only msg board that I have been on that particular word would be considered acceptable and I've been to several msg boards on the net. I feel since you didn't get blocked, then Atticus' block should be removed. And why should you receive several PBCs and I only one. Because you were learning? So was I and like I said, I didn't even see mine. That made absolutely no difference to Bob. By coincidence Bob and I were posting in that thread at the same time. I never refreshed my screen. He holds that against me. That's really fair in comparison of how you have been treated, NOT!!! I just want to see equal punishment for equal crimes, so to speak.
What is so wrong with that?
