Friends,
This thread about zuzu's post brings up to me something that I have wanted to write about here. I think that the goals here of support and education have the very great potential for this forum to be a beacon of light to those seeking to be rescued from the storms that they find themselves here.
But does someone finding the light have to conform to a standard of writing to be rescued?
I have a suggestion that IMO could have the potential to benifit the community. Let us suppose that we have another post like zuzu's. I suggest that the post when it is first seen, be alerted by anyone to be deleted. Then the post will be forwarded to someone here that takes the position of someone that revises it to be acceptable in relation to the guidlines of the forum, like an editor of a newspaper. Then the post in placed back on the board and there is no blocking or even a mention that what was written was not acceptable in relation to the guidlines of the forum.
I think that if this is implemented here, that it could be good for the community. I think that I have seen a multitude of very talented people here that could take zuzu's post and revise it to be acceptable here by either deleting parts that can not be revised , or revising parts that could.
