I encourage all members to read.

It has recently been brought to my attention that some users here have chosen to begin discussing other users, by name, quite often in a derogatory manner, in responses and comments. I have deleted posts (responses/comments) from a few different people lately after they were reported to me. This behaviour simply will not do and I am requesting that everyone please stop this immediately. If you do not like someone here, that is your own personal business. It is not business that needs to be discussed/shared here with other members of the site in the public forum. Even if you do not directly mention names, gossiping about other members is not something that should be done in the public discussion areas. Ideally you should not talk about other members here at all, but if you feel you absolutely must, this should be done in a PM. Thank you.

I only joke with people who KNOW I’m joking, and always follow it with emojis ( and ) to ensure everyone that I AM joking.

I haven't run into any nastiness here, unless about Rump.

I have had discussions posted about me directly. I read it, but passed it by. But is requesting prayer for a member okay?

I agree. I have mentioned names but it was to get the persons attention when we were having fun with each other. Never as a put down derogatory thing.

I totally agree and I have not been doing this. Thanks though for the warning in case I run across anything like this online then I will report it,

Posting crap about me has been going on for months. I could give a flying you-know-what. It is always from people jealous that I make more money than they do or that I disagree with politically. Glad that it was finally reported. I don't read the posts of those individuals so I neither know nor care what they say. Sure did get a lot of reports about it in my PMs though. I already work in a high school with drama. I don't need stupid adult drama too in my free time. I don't beg people for money. I just live my life. Don't like me? Then don't read my posts or comment about me. Want money? Get a job.

Yes, such a behavior is not right. One might agree or disagree on certain points but that can be done in a good way. Not this way.

Thank you for this official post regarding this activity. I agree that a PM is the best method to speak one-on-one with another member.
