I think it is a hard one because some other people are saying that they are leaving because the blocks aren't as harsh as they used to be or because Bob isn't blocking people the way he once was. And people saying that others being uncivil to them really affected them a great deal... And that thinking of reduced time (or no time) for people who are uncivil to them... Makes them feel unsafe posting here.
I think Bob has been willing to discuss... I think he has (at least tried to) listen. I think sometimes his responses do sound dismissive... But I don't think he intends them to be so... I think he is concerned about providing stability and if he is going to err he errs on the side of tradition / conservativism.
