It's just amazing that so many put the onus for everything that's happened--including the depopulation of Babble--onto Bob, while no one looks at what he or she--or others-- did, said, or wrote, and the atmosphere that was created, which resulted in blocks and in quitting. And why attribute all shifts in involvement of other posters to the blocks, etc, rather then to shifts in interests or desire to be here, as opposed to other places?-- As if there aren't multiple motives for posting or not posting at a particular place?
Blocking uncivil posters is not a phenomenon unique to babble. Every message board I've ever gone to, including Psych Central, has a policy of blocking uncivil posters. In fact, if you read the policy at Psych Central, it's a good deal more draconian than the one here.Are we all victims here? Where did we get this victim ideology?
