i really think the entire post of which the above paragraph is part of, is
an excellent overall statement for what appears to be happening. someone
else posted recently about how the tone of email can be misunderstood when
you can't hear a voice nor see facial expressions--that was an excellent
post to remind to not jump to conclusions about what we think someone meant.
it is my opinion that while posting a word sounds useful, it will become
like the unsub problem where everyone writes in asking "now what was that
special word for when the heat gets too hot???" also, i see it as a way to
control the group interaction. tho i am not for ganging up on members,
neither am i for control. if the gang-beatings are severe enough to cause
the loss of members, some of whom are the very backbone of the list, then
the list will eventually die. the list could be moderated, but angelique
doesn't have time for that.
if i went to work & treated people like some of these folks believe they
have been treated, i wouldn't have a job very long--& it's well known that
my opinion of several of my coworkers is that we don't have to like each
other, we just have to get along for the time we're together (since 1983).
couldn't WE just try to get along with each other for the time WE are
together online?
as always, thank you for allowing me to be here, & a good day to us all.
