Hopefully if there are remarks that need to be removed writers will request the removal themselves. I don’t know of many people here who want to police content. There are some who want to make certain that respect replaces bullying.
Bring it on back.
I don’t see your name anywhere here, except where you chose to put it. I understand that you are never going to respect my wishes and stop commenting on my posts. I really don’t think you even understand. That is not something I can fix or change. I can only request that you not comment or talk about me.
Whatever.
I am proud of you!
I know it takes guts not to be afraid.
i forgot the site has that rule sitting on it. I have asked the Admin team for the right to allow authors to remove comments. They said they would get back to me.
I do like your point, however. No one really wants to police content. I think it would be better to just be able to block specific people from your feed!
I think that is a start. However I found a whole paragraph about how horrible I am posted on some one else’s feed. When it comes right down to it if they are not going to enforce them they aren’t rules and eventually people will fight back and defend themselves – but you can’t fix stupid.
As far as I can tell everything here is OK and nothing stands out as inappropriate.
Oh well there is some, not right here, but there is some that needs to be addressed. It probably won’t happen though.
Have people been breaking the rules or something.
Yes there are people who break the rules and use inappropriate language. I hope you never have to see it.
