Hi, I'm muffled, dunno if we've met. Hello.
I been battling this for AWHILE.
I think its a matter of deterrence. I'm of a mind that a week at a time would be plenty. Deter, but not utterly ostracise. Theres ALOT on admin about this stuff.
There HAS been change, but its VERY slow...
The notification button does serve a purpose, cuz it is sometimes good to have anonymity. Tends to keep the peace a little more. Again, there's lotsa fights bout people feeling "attacked" and that sort of thing, historically here on admin. Its rather rough and tumble here.
So try not to burn yourself out here...
BTW, this site is owned and operated 100% by Robert Hsuing, there is ultimately NO recourse other than him. Thats good to keep in mind...
Take care,glad you taking an interestin the 'stuff' of babble.
