In my opinion, if you do it once you would just open a door for more such concerns to come to the board. In the past such things have been settled among the users of the chat. (And sometimes the solution has been to ignore a particular individual, which the chat mechanism provides such an option.)I do think it's best if problems can be settled there. But if not, then I still think I should try to do something.
Hmm, maybe it would help if there were a few "regulars" with whom I could consult when something comes up? Since I don't really know what goes on there...
