It's still a work in progress, and we're still trying to figure out exactly what he'd do in this situation or that

Things erupting on board does not sound in keeping with the civility guidelines. Dr. Bob is in favor of encouraging people to discuss things on board, but in accordance with the civility guidelines. Wherever a confrontation starts, posts should remain civil. And uncivil babblemails should be reported to Administration off board.
> This sounds very iffy.
Posters have been asking for this. I realize it might seem different when it actually happens.
> I don't suppose that Bob would come on the board and add his two cents to this discussion?I don't suppose he would. But hope springs eternal. I think you know how I feel about Dr. Bob's presence. And about deputorial presence for that matter. I'd rather no deputies be needed because Dr. Bob was here all the time. However, he asked me to do this because he didn't think he could get to it any time soon. It would have come better from him, I think. But we're what you've got.
