Okay Dr. Bob,
I guess I am kind of dumb. Rather than think about "tattling" as anti-supportive of a possibly un-civil babble-poster, I should think of "notification" as being supportive of the volunteer deputies.This re-framing helps me to justify being part of the community.
However, it would be much appreciated if the rules and such were spelled out clear as day on a page somewhere. I feel insecure to report something (even if it's a private babble-mail to a deputy) if I don't know what the latest rules are.
I know it's one of the big projects you've been procrastinating, Dr. Bob. It can't be as much fun as tinkering with Babble-Chat. But having clear rules (where they can be made clear) is essential to your mission.
Simple things like
Don't post more than three times in a row, unless you are responding to other's posts.
That particular rule is the subject of so much uncertainty that I don't even know what the latest update is.
Thanks again, and thanks for hearing me. I think you did a good job of addressing my concerns.
