OK?" "Someone used the phrase 't*t for tat': Is that OK?" And so on and so forth. Some of the guests know Minnie and either ignore her remarks or take them with good humor. But other guests are uncomfortable. Some have already left. Is Minnie's behavior civil?
Yes, but if I were hosting a party for people with mental illnesses I would certainly expect to have to be flexible, within reason. Of course the guests are struggling too and may be particularly sensitive. In this case, the topic has come up before, Dr. Bob has placed limits on consecutive threads as a compromise.
I certainly understand the frustration of having certain posters get your shirt in a knot. It's happened to me, as I made accidentally clear a couple of months ago, and that's why I'm in favor of an *ignore* button, (different things get to us all, and ignoring posts is sometimes easier said than done) It doesn't mean however, that I think I have a right to have them "dealt with" because they bother me personally.
