~ ~ ~ I'm not sure what we could have done? I was extremely upset to read verne's post.
I really don't know what anyone could have done to help verne avoid a block. It was clear that he meant every word he said & I don't think there was any doubt that - well let me just say that, it seemed to me that to put it mildly, he didn't care if he hurt anyone's feelings!
I think if it was a case of someone wording something in a way that might have hurt someone's feelings & if there was some uncertainty....that maybe the poster didn't realize that what he/she said could be taken a hurtful way - well I suppose someone could try to carefully point that out. But in this case, it was pretty clear that that wasn't the case.
I am glad that that behaviour was not tolerated.
Thanks. Kath
