Bob, clearly from the statements below you need to cut some apron strings. Posters are not here to "make you feel good" or "long for you".
>
> "Maybe posters want me to feel good and that's why they're not trying to help their fellow posters avoid being blocked? But if blocking people really made me feel good, I would've blocked them already." *Now you're shaming them?*For one, were not used to being in an environment where we can help our fellow poster. Its called a block, Bob. And two, did you hear us tell them NOT to help us? I like help when its freely given.

" we'll never reach a middle ground. OTOH, change is slow" Bob
**************************************************I DO NOT EXCEPT THAT ANY MORE AND NIETHER WILL THEY. STOP ALREADY, BOB. STOP. ITS TIME. TAKE A LEAP OF FAITH, YOU CAN DO IT.
No More Bob,
Its time. And you know it. This has become abusive on this Admin board and it needs to stop.
THE NEW RULE BOOK
Can we get this out to at least one or two key posters on each board (active on that board)??
This draft will be reviewed by the posters AS/IS and a rough draft that Posters will polish into a final draft will be given to you when they are done. Unless there is some fatal flaw in their new policies and rules "book", No Changes By You.
Okay, here is what we want. I don't think I've seen that yet. No more questions from you Bob, the deputies can take a break from all they do. And stand by for real emergencies.Whats been missing is a formal list of new policies that posters are willing to follow. Bottom up Bob. Are you enlightened enough to give this a try for two months? Three if its going well? No more talking. This is going to happen.
As soon as Garnet or Fay or Sigismund or whoever has time, they can run it by the posters, I'll email everyone I know, as a rough draft that they, posters, will polish into a final draft.
Okay, here is what we want. I don't think I've seen that yet. But I've sure been hearing it. The boards will get together, come up with new rules they are willing to follow, and here they are. I'm just giving this as an example.1. No Blocks unless someone has been warned by a mini deputy on their board and the behavior is so out of line he/she needs a week off. This will be held for extreme cases.
2. Blocks will no longer last more than one week.
Anyone currently over a week is back now.3. No notify button. Posters are voted in to be mini deputies of their board. You'll call (Admin) if you need them for an emergency. Still no blocks longer than a week.
4. All this crazy punishing for how posters word something will end. Unless someone's getting cussed out or humiliated, You can talk to each other like adults, and take a break from that person if mini dep says so. Then make them talk about it, when they cool down. They both take 15 min off maybe.
Bob, its time you show some respect and confidence in your posters. They are quite capable of doing this as we've learned the last two weeks. Unless you just enjoy blocking and controlling people,
What do you have to lose?? So lets start with those posters. Sigismund is really looking forward to having Zazenducke back. Along with anyone over a week.
Thanks Bob ;-)
Your a gentlemen and a scholar!Y
