You can request that Muffled not post to you, but I'd rather lines of communication stayed open, so I think I'd prefer not to enforce this unless you feel harassed and it's necessary as a last resort. If you do feel harassed and see this a last resort, could you let me know, by babblemail or email, what it is that makes you feel that way and what steps you've already taken to address this? Then I'll post something if I'm going to enforce this.

In reply to your invitation to discuss your new policy concerning using your feature to request that another (please do not to post to me}, you could ask for that the requestor send to you ;
A. If you {feel} harassed, could you let me know what it is as to {why you >feel<} that you want the other member to please not post to them
B. What steps have already been taken by the requestor
I think that your rule here is that if someone {feels}harassed, that that is the criteria to be used by the requestor to use what IMO is a {privilege} to invoke here your rule at the requestor's descretion. I also think that if you want to require that those that use that privilege to tell you {why} they want to exercise that privilege, could that not constitute a relationship that could be considerd to be a practice of psychiatry?
