This is all a bit difficult

In reply to Announcement of Policy Changes, posted by Deputy Dinah on July 30, 2008, at 21:50:35

to answer in the particular.

The desire for Dr. Bob to wait to see if posters resolve something dates way back to when I felt forced to resign, and was resolved when Dr. Bob acknowledged we were posters as well as deputies and could report things ourselves. It's still a work in progress, and we're still trying to figure out exactly what he'd do in this situation or that.

This is also a work in progress. We'll check our understanding of it against Dr. Bob's and adjust accordingly.

I didn't want to scare anyone with thoughts that we're going to do some sort of draconian crackdown because that isn't true. We're trying to be respectful and sensitive to the needs and concerns of the posters. We are posters ourselves, after all.

And I absolutely do not want to imply in any way that this is directed at any poster or group of posters. It absolutely is not. It is just a small change in policy.

After I've said so many times that deputies have to stick to the letter of the law, it didn't feel right to make a change in this without trying to explain it first.

After we've allowed an awful lot of incivility against deputies, it wouldn't feel right to start applying the civility rules without explaining first.
