Mr. Hsiung,
In regards to that you write that it is fine to discuss actions you take, ask for your rationale, rules and policy here, I would like to have discussion with you here in this thread concerning your policy as to that one here is to [...not post anything that could lead another to feel accused or put down...].
My concerns are for clarification as to:
A. How do you determine if what is in question in a post as to if it could lead someone to feel accused or put down, as to what are the criteria in the statement that you use to make that determination.
B. In those criteria,if any, could you allow the statement in question, just because the poster writes that they believe it? If so, how does the fact that the member posting the statement in question that they believe it make the statement any less to the recipiant that {feels} put down or accused when they read it?
C. If a member objects to you that a statement here makes them feel put down or accused, do you have some way to say to them that the statement in question does not make them feel put down or accused, even though the member reporting writes that they feel accused or put down when they read the statement in question?
D. If so, do you take a survey of others in that group and ask them if they feel put down when they read the statement in question?
E. If a statement here is reported to you that it leads another to {feel} put down or accused, and if you take a position that is does not, by what authority do you use, if any, to tell the member reporting that the statment in question does not lead him/her to {feel} put down or accused {if the statement has in it the generally accepted criteria that constitutes a statment that could be of the nature that it puts down}?
If you could reply to any of the above, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly. Others could offer their conception of what they think constitutes a statement that could lead another to feel put down or accused if they like here. One of the generally accepted meanings of {to put down} is for the statement in question to lead someone to feel belittled when they read the statement in question. Then there are derivatives from that and other meanings.

> Lou PilderMr. Hsiung,
Let us look at (B.) in the above post.
If you are wanting to mean that a statement that could lead another here to feel put down is allowed to be posted here unsanctioned on the basis that the poster of it writes that they believe it, could you then modify your TOS from:
[...do not write {anything} that could lead another here to {feel} put down or accused...]
to:
[..you can write any statement here that could lead another to feel put down or accused if you write that you believe it...]?
If you are wanting to mean that one can write what could lead another here to feel accused or put down if they write that they believe it, could you have your TOS to reflect that one can write a statement that puts down or accuses another or a group if they write that they believe it? I think that it could be good for the community to know in advance in your TOS here, if that is what you are wanting to mean, so that others could have a better understanding of your thinking here as to posting so that if one wants to post about someone else's whatever, they could do so with writing that they believe it so that if the statement in question meets the criteria that it could lead another to feel put down, they could have tha they believe it in the statement to allow it to stand. if you could reply here to me, then I could respond accordingly.

>Mr. Hsiung,
In regards to your TOS that you are wanting feedback and such, I am wanting to reinstate my concerns and requests to you for clarification and the other posts that I have requested that you respond to me that went unresponded to me a few months ago even though I withdrew those requests, because I have changed my mind now because of new posts that have concerns to me that I think could be related to the ones that I withdrew my requests to you.
If there is any reason why you could not return to those posts that I withdrew my requests to, could you post a rationale for such , if any? If so, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.

It depends on the statement. "I believe Dr. Bob has gone overboard" could still lead me to feel accused.

No, of course not.

Lou, I welcome feedback, but I can get busy sometimes, and don't have a staff to reply for me, so I'm afraid I can't respond to all posts to me. I hope you understand, and please do feel free to continue to add your voice to the discussion here.

You wrote,[...it depends on the statement...],
I ask;
How does the poster prefacing a statement that could lead, let's say, a Jew to feel put down make it so that the Jewish person does not feel put down when they read it, if the poster prefaces the statement in question with {I believe}?
If you could post here what your criteria are in {it depends}, that you use to determine if the statement that could lead a Jew to fell put down would not feel put down when they read the statement if it has {I believe} in it, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly. And if you could take in account your post to me that says that you will expell me from the community if I was to post the foundation of my faith that I believe, in regards that my God has revealed to me in a supernatural way, which the faith boards express purpose is to discuss the service and worship of God or the supernatueral, a commandment to me that I xxx(the foundation of Judaism), then I could also respond accordingly.

I have requested that you in (A);

I asked in part (D) if you take a survey to find out if something is likely or not to lead a person of a group to feel put down. I think that a reply as to if you do or do not take a survey is important to me in our discussion here.
In our discussion , I would like for you to include in any response as to what you posted here on July 22, 2002;
[...Sometimes the goals of these boards conflict. Our goal is of course that they be supportive. Another is that people feel free to post, since how else are they going to be supported?

I would like for our discussion to include the action that you took here in the following post where you write,[...I think that's good...] which was a response by you to a rephrasing of a post that was considered to be unacceptable but became acceptable by you because the poster put {I believe} in it.

Faith and Politics have been oases of peace for even longer than long they have been deserted.
Years ago, when people still went to Politics, a resigned kindness characterised the board, as is the same on Faith.Conflicts that might arise between viewpoints that are inconsistent with each other should be treated differently to conflicts between people, where there is a real chance of people being hurt.
I'd love to know the answer to this....

From what you wrote above here, and since you do respond to posts, then I ask as to what is the criteria, if any, that you use to determine as to which posts that you will respond to and which posts that you will not respond to? If I and the other members here could know of your criteria used for that, then I and others could have the opportunity to use those criteria for to have either an expectation for a reply from you or not.

> Lou PilderMr. Hsiung,
In regards to if you are intending to reply to me here concerning your statement and my reply to you here about what your criteria are, if any, for responding to other's requests to you or not, I would like for you to consider in any reply to me here in this thread the following of a concern of mine that I do not see a reply from you to me here that identifies what posts could or could not be good for the community as a whole about my concerns in relation to requesting clarification and guidance concerning site rules.
My concern was and still is as to what you are wanting to mean by your TOS that writes to trust you and that you do what in your thinking will be good for the community as a whole. This was my concern on June 22, 2007 where I was asking for you in relation to actions that you have taken and for you to post your rationale that I had asked you for in relation for you to post examples of posts that could or could not be good for the community as a whole in relation to seeking clarification and guidance concerning site rules here.
You wrote on June 22, 2007,
[...My suggestion is oriented to those administrative posts that seek clarification and guidance regarding site rules. Perhaps before we post them (the requests) we could ask ourselves whether doing so is likely to be productive and constructive for the community as a whole?...]This was a reply by you to a member about members posting requests to you and I am a member that has requested many clarifications concerning site rules here.(citation uhnwlg 16)
If I or anyone else here is to ask themselves as to if what they are requesting clarification and guidance for will or will not be good for the community as a whole, I think that since your TOS also writes that if one would want to know your rationale to just ask and that also your TOS says that the administrative board is for discussion about the administration of the forum and it is fine to discuss actions that you take, rules, policy and such and to remind you of outstanding requests.
This concern of mine here is of significant importance to me because I have many requests to you here for clarification and guidance concerning site rules and I would like to know and would like the forum members to also know, if my requests to you for clarification are or or not good for the community as a whole according to any rationale that you may have for making that determination. Also, others could also know your criteria for such for them to post what could or could not be good for the community as a whole according to yout thinking. So if you are going to post your criteria for responding to member's requests to you here, I would like for you to include this in any reply to me here. (citation uhnwlg 17)

Mr. Hsiung,
There is to me a serious nature in this that I am very concerned about. You write that you can not respond to all posts to you, but you do respond to posts here. I am unsure as to what criteria you have, if any, that you use for responding to member's requests here.
The seriousness to me in this situation is that there is the potential, IMO, because you post concerning that there could be requests for clarification and guidance to you that could either be good for the community as a whole or not and that you write that members could ask themselves that before posting their request for claification. This is of great importance to me for you to identify, by using some type of example as to what a request could be that could be good for the community as a whole, and one that could not be good for the community as a whole, as examples for others to use to make their own determination as to if my requests are or are not good for the community as a whole according to your thinking here.
You see, since you have posted concerning posts requesting clarification and guidance that others IMO could think that some could be of the nature that the requests could not be good for the community as a whole, then I feel that there is the potential for me to be stigmatized here as a member that requests clarification and guidance concerning site rules that could not be considered by you to be good for the community as a whole untill you post your examples that I have requested that could distinguish between requests for clarification or guidance that are or are not good for the community as a whole.
I can not think of a request for clarification or guidance to you about site rules that could not be good for the community as a whole and if there is one I am asking for you to post here such an example to compare my requests to your example of one that could not be good for the community as a whole. But you have rasied IMO the spector that there could be requests to you for clarification and guidance that could not be good for the community as a whole and I would like to clear this up, for if there is the potential IMO for me to be stigmatized, then there is also the potential IMO for me to be used as a scapegoat here and I would like this cleared up.

When there were more people here it made sense to banish a few now and then to keep the rest in line.
Now that there are so few left we are being encouraged to resolve our differences without intervention.
It's nice to see that people are valued.

Sigismund,
You wrote,[...banish makes sense with a lot of members..now with fewer members..without intervention...people are valued...]
I am unsure as to what you are wanting to purport here by what you posted. This is because I am not in the understsnding that there has been a new polcy here concerning blocking and then if there was some change here about that, what you are wanting to mean by people {valued} in relation to that. If you could clarify this with more infomation, then I could have a better idea of what you are wanting to mean and if there was a new policy here made or not.

I was thinking of Bob's response to Happyflower.....
> I think almost everytime I was blocked it was because I [responded to feeling hurt] by someone or something to begin with. ... Hurt goes both ways. I have been told I hurt someone bad, but so was I. I don't go around hurting people without some action that provoked it. I have to learn not to let myself be provoked so much.
Those cycles of hurt can be really destructive. And hard to break!
> one thing I have learned from [Dinah] is forgiveness and understanding.
The deputies and I can as a last resort block people, but I'd much prefer to see posters help each other to break those cycles. Or, even better, to be forgiving and understanding and to break them themselves.
Like you did with your corrections, thanks.

That only has relevance to cycles of personal antagonism.
There have been blocks (or cautions) for generalizing, exagerrating and stating opinions that might make a supporter of a differing opinion feel put down in the opinion of Dr Bob.

It might help to be able to make a distinction like that. But don't conflicts between viewpoints also sometimes lead to conflicts between the people who hold them?

Yes.
I have been meaning to go back in the archives and look at people's posts around 9/11 and the second Bush election, just to see.
But people who have strongly differing opinions do not neccessarily hurt each other badly.
IMO, the kinds of differences (and hurt) that happen on Faith and Politics are buffered by the awareness that different viewpoints preclude each other's validity.
I think what really hurts people is being excluded, shunned or made(?) to feel put down.
There are people I have spoken to civilly on Faith and Politics whom I never expected to agree with, but that was factored in.

In regards to your TOS here that you take responsibility for what you post here,(citation dfm7), this is my reminder in accordance with your reminder procedure , the above concerns of mine.
Now I have more concerns because you have posted to others here and not to my concerns in the above posts which leads me to have a want to know what your rationale could be for posting to others but not to me in relation to my concerns from what you have posted that could IMO have the potential to lead some others to think that what you posted here is about my posting requests for clarification and guidance concerning site rules and such.
When I read what you have posted here, and you write in your TOS tha you take responsibility for what you post, I feel that IMO others could have the potential to put me in a light of someone that posts requests to you that could have the potential to be not good for the community as a whole and I would like for you to post as to if you are wanting to mean that any of my requests to you for guidance and clarification about site rules are in your thinking not good for the community as a whole, and why you think that, so that I could respond to whatever you post here about me concerning my requests to you for clarification and guidance about site rules.
There is a principle called {false light}. Are you aware of that principle? I do not want to be cast in a false light here and in my opinion there is the potential for that to happen to me here untill my concerns in the above posts to you are cleared up in relation to your TOS that you welcome feedback and it is fine to discuss actions that you take and to ask for your rationale and to discuss rules and post reminders for such requests outstanding.

You wrote,[...Lou, I welcome feedback, but...I can't...].
I am unsure as to your TOS here that writes that you are welcomming feedback and that you do what is in your thinking what will be good for the community as a whole and that members trust you in that.
This has to me a want for clarification here because your TOS also states that you take responsibility for what you post here.
There is what you have posted that I am requesating to have dialog with you about and there is a principle called {good faith} that I undertsnad to be an accepted practice when someone writes that they take responsibility for what they post.
I am reminding you in good faith to post here concerning my requests to you as to what you have posted here that IMO could have the potential for some others to think that what you posted is about me. Could you reply to me concerning as to that that you posted as per the principle of good faith which IMO means that since you write that you take responsibility for what you post, then IMO since I want to respond to any reply to me, I would like for the reply to be timely, for each day with out a reply means to me that more people could make conclusions about as to if what you wrote in question is about me or not and I would like that clear that up? If so, then I could have the opportunity to know if my requests are considered by you to be about me and respond so that if there is any specter that could have the potential to cast me in a false lite, I could respond to what you posted here.

> BobRobert,
You wrote,[...I welcome feedback, but I can get busy sometimes. and don't have a staff to reply for me, so I am afraid that I can not respond to all posts to me. I hope you understand, and do feel free to continue to add your voice to the discussion here...].
I do understand. I understand that the TOS here is that you write that you take responsibility for what you write here. I do understand that you write here that if one wants to know your rationale to please just ask you. I understand that you write that this administration board is for discussion of the policy, rules, actions that you take and such. I understand that you write that one is to remind you of outstanding requests. I understand that you write that you do what in your thinking will be good for the community as a whole . I understand that you write that others to trust you in what you do here. I understand that you write that it is your policy to want to be fair. I undertstand what you have written here. You have written,[...I can get busy {sometimes}...]. Then you could also not be busy sometimes?. You wrote,[...I don't have a staff to respond for me...]. I am unsure as to what you are wanting to mean here by that because I am asking you about what you wrote as per your writing here that you take responsibility for what you write here, and I am unsure as to if a staff is needed to reply to me for what you have written as that you have replied to others here even for what you have not written here and I am having an expection as per your policy of being {fair} to receive a reply from you.
If you could clarify this for me then I could know if, or if not, what you have written here is any attempt to give any appearance that could have the potential IMO of others thinking as to what you have wriiten is to justify or not or establish a foundation or not, to not reply to me concerning what your TOS writes as per that you welcome feedback and such. I do not see any foundation in what you wrote in question here to justify not answering my concerns to you and if you are wanting to mean from your statement here in question that you are not going to write an answer to me that answers my concerns with your giving me your rationales, and criteria requested and such, then if that is what you are wanting to mean could you confirm that or not? If you could, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.

Hi Lou
I can understand that Bob might feel he needs a staff with stuff like this.
I feel like I need some Dexedrine and morphine just to get to the bottom of the page.
But anyway....As I understand it, all this is about the fact the it very well might be considered uncivil for you to post that the rider said to you
'have no other Gods before me'. (Now I've said it).
But this is the first commandment, or similar to it.So is it a question for you of not only justice being done but being seen to be done?
