> A. no one here can [requier] another to {not} request clarification from them {if they directed a post to them}?
If A directs a post to B, B may direct a reply back to A. Which means A may not require B not to request clarification.
> B. A statement by a poster, to a poster that {they directed a statement to}, to not reply to them would be considered {uncivil} here?
If A directs a post to B, B may direct a reply back to A. A could ask B not to, but B still could if he or she wanted.
> C. anyone can reqquest clarification {unlesss the other poster writes that {no one can} request clarification from them? And this is overrulled if the statement is directed to the person that is requesting the infomation?
If A directs a post to B, C may direct a reply to A unless A has asked C not to. But B may even if A has asked B not to.
> C-2. a poster can discriminate by writing that {anyone can respond to them},except Lou? (or someone else)
Posters are free to decide whom they ask not to direct posts to them.
But I'd like the requests to be reasonable. Since if nobody can post to anybody, it won't be very supportive here. And I'd consider a request that no one reply to be unreasonable.
