Extra clarification, as one of the plse dont post from one of the people (lou):
There is a range of ways this happens, and certainly sometimes exactly what you described did happen
I wasnt in discussion with Lou before I posted, and my message wasnt motivated by being emotionally negative. I was motivated by thinking it was such a shame that he didnt show signs of implementing/having read some useful ideas from an expert (whose feedback to my message was v interesting for me).
I was surprised to get that particular response, as I expected requests for clarification. That doesnt make it 'better'- does make it more complicated re what sparks off a plse dont post.
I was pleased to read Lou's helpful reply to a poster on PSB recently - showed another aspect.
Of course, this may all be down to my own psychopathology- want to 'make things better' and am not comfortable with 'full and frank' discussions (what politicians call arguments!)As I have mentioned on another post that it also changes how I approach posting on PBA- much more thought and caution.
And oh heck, maybe its not so important?? Part of me thinks that its easy to get drawn into this more than it deserves.
What really matters to me is that the other PB boards continue to exist, and can provide a supportive setting. Both show every sign of continuing.
Phew!
