The above writes that antisemitism came into this thread by way of the link offered.
That was a post by myself that was about the aspect in general about the restraints of the "3" rule.
In my post, I wrote in relation to antisemitism,[...{let's say}...]. I was using that aspect only as a n example of types of posts that I could want Dr. Hsiung to write a determination concerning those type. I could have used [...posts that have the potential to arrouse ill-will toward me or another...] , or, [...posts that have the potential to accuse another...]. My post was not intended to be about a spacific post in this thread.

Friends,
It is written here,[....Nikki never said it was you...]. Nikki has written, [...someone here threatened to sue me for defamation...].
Now my concern is to the identification of who the poster is that NikkiT2 is referring to that she wrote that someone here threatened to sue her for defamation.
Later in that thread, NikkiT2 writes something that I can not understand. She writes, [...Where did I say in my post that it was in a post here?...].
This is difficult for me to understand without having a URL to see. If NikkiT2 is saying that the poster that made the threat to sue for defamation made the threat outside of what can be seen by me on this forum, then I asked if that could make a difference.
Then NikkiT2 makes it clear that the poster that made the threat to sue for defamation [...was *from* someone here...].
Now if the threat to sue for defamation was made on another forum, could ther be a chance that the URL could be discovered?
If so, then the poster of such could be identified and the content of the post seen.
I am requesting that if you are going to either respond to this aspect, or if you are going to modify what you may have already posted, to read the folloowing link and take what is written in consideration if you are going to respond here.
The poster writes,[...he,(Lou), threatened me with legal action...].
I am not requesting that Dr. Hsiung write a determination because the post has already been in the past done, and I would like to go forward here.
but I am requesting that anyone post the URL where I wrote that I threatened Nikki with legal action, for I do not remember writing that.

Please consider Nikki's feelings. It may not have anything to do with any constitution ever written, but it is a very generous thing to do, and it is the type of behavior considered very moral in most religions.
What's more, Lou, it would be a Mitzvah.

We now have seen that the staement, [...Nikki never said it was you (Lou)...]could have the potential , IMO, for some to reconsider what they ahave already written in regards to this thread and the aspect of NikkiT2's post,[...someone here threatened to sue me for defamation...].
Now I would like the forum to know that I do not believe that I have ever emailed Nikki with a threat to sue for defamation, or corrosponded with her by letter, fax, phone or posted about her in any way on another forum. This causes me to ask myself that if I never did any of those things mentioned, then what else could have been the deliverance of what she says that,[...he (Lou) threatened me with legal action...]other than a post here? And if that is so, then I am requesting for anyone to post the URL for that post.
This leaves me with requesting for those that are considering responding to this discussion to consider my feelings about what is written here.
Lou

> You have asked me in some way,[... what prevents me from asking Nikki if she is referring to me...].
> That I will answer when I have the time, for my answer is very complex.OK, why not take the time to answer it now? You're asking for a lot from a lot of other people, Lou, and so I would very much hope that you'd be willing to offer something in return. Isn't that fair? How about you take the time to answer that question now, and then -- fair play -- someone can answer your next question?
> But could I ask you what your opinion is as to why NikkiT2 has not identified the poster that she writes,[...someone here threatened to sue me for defamation...]?
Perhaps it's because by asking in a general way, she does not create a situation in which someone feels accused or put down, thus stays within the civility guidelines for this site. Obviously, this isn't 100%, since you seem to feel that the post in question was referring to you. In law, though, there is the "Reasonable Person" test, where you basically ask what a hypothetical Reasonable Person would believe. In this case, I think Nikki has passed the Reasonable Person test.
If you think that she's referring to you, you can ask her directly, rather than continuing to behave as if her post definitely does refer to you. That would help keep Nikki from feeling accused and put down, which she has stated she does feel. Dr Bob has made a ruling about this in the past, Lou, and you're ignoring it now. What are we to interpret from this behavior?
And isn't it pretty close to the line regarding civility -- the part about not posting things that make others feel accused or put down?
> Also, could you ask NikkiT2 to identify the poster that wrote that NikkiT2 is referring to in,[...someone here thretened to sue me for defamation...]?
> LouThat's something which, in order to stay within the guidelines of this site as I understand them, she cannot do in a post. Perhaps if you were to ask her privately? Or ask Dr Bob privately?

My guess is she is being discreet.

I could ask Nikki, but I have no personal need to. Are you asking me to ask her for you? I can't help but imagine hearing Nikki in my head saying, "Um, guys? I'm right here! I can read what you are saying."

If you believe that it is up to you to enforce the rules of this site, and protect us all from anything that might inadvertantly bring to mind anything regarding anything related to Judaism, how about offering to become a Deputy here? Why not ask Dr Bob to include you in the Deputy training, see if he believes that you would be a potential Deputy? That might make for better use of your time, don't you think?
By the way, Lou -- it really wouldn't be a Mitzvah to ADDRESS other posters directly, ASK us what we mean, and RESPECT requests not to post to or about us.
It would be plain, old-fashioned good manners, though.

It is written here as pertaining to the question as to why NikkiT2 has not identified the person in the statement by NikkiT2,[...someone {here} threatened to sue me for defamation...],{...because by {asking} in a {general way} she does not create a situation in which someone feels accused or put down....}.
I am requesting that if you are considering o reply to this aspect of this thread that you ask yourself the folllowing:
A. Is there something that the poster is {asking} in the statement,[...someone here threatened...]? If so, could you write what in your opinion it is that the poster is {asking}?
B. Is the statement,[...someone here threatened to sue me...]spacific to at least one poster that is a member of this community?
C. Does the statement rule out anyone as to the identity of the person that threatened the other poster with a suit?
D. If no one here is ruled out as the possible person that made the threat to sue, could ther be the potential that the person could be, at least, one of many members here.
E. Could some others here have some memory problems that could cause them to think that maybe they are the person in question that threatened the suit because they can not remember evrything that they wrrote? If so, could those members here have the potential to feel accused and/or put down?
F. Could it be possible that there is not a member here that threatened a suit for defamation to the poster?. If so, could there be the potential for some here to feel accused falsly?

I meant that had Nikki chosen to name the person in question, it might not have been considered allowable on this site.
I have a question for you, though, Lou:
Since you are continuing to question whether or not Nikki has a right to express herself on this matter, does that mean that you believe her to be referring to you because you did, in fact, threaten to sue her for defamation?
If so, I can certainly understand your discomfort and distress. I would hate to think that I had made such a threat to anyone, personally, and it would bother me even more if that threat was made public.

A. Could there be someone here botherd by that statement?
B. Is there a threat that is made public?
