"This is a message board for mutual support and education."
So it seems, Dr. Bob, this forum is more for members that it is for you. Lightening up a bit on the rules, such as letting people resolve their own problems (like apologizing to another, etc.) before doing administrative blocks, would be beneficial to the community because it would foster personal growth and social skills that are helpful in maintaining a supportive evironment.
This technique is more in line with your mission statements and forum purpose. The environment of 'walking on eggshells' that some have inadvertently described through many posts on this particular board is counterproductive to a supportive atmosphere.
Think about it.
