You do have friends here, Bluedog. I was going to post yesterday to see if yoga class had resumed, although I hadn't participated on the thread involved since I haven't had a first date since age 17.
In the time you've been here, you've become an important part of the community. You received one reply that got a pbc. The rest of us are just a bit shell-shocked. Please don't leave. Do look at what has happened lately again, and see how few posters have actually been involved.
As far as cliques are concerned, it would be foolish to say that isn't involved, but it's "not" the basis of this board. In fact, a large part of my distress is that everyone involved was a friend. Because everyone involved is more than just their involvement in these threads. I could tell you stories of great kindnesses.
I'm pretty sure we're reaching the end of this. Not only has Dr. Bob reinforced the limits, but the community has spoken as well, reinforcing the community's idea of acceptable limits. The second is probably far more powerful than the first.
Please don't leave. Give it a chance to see if this settles down. Any dynamic that sprung up so quickly is obviously not deeply entrenched.
Now back to the important things. Has yoga class resumed?
