*********> What about babblers who've chosen to leave the site?
What if they've chosen to leave because of a perception that blocks and other punitive measures were the work of a monarch/oligarchy and they felt powerless to effect any changes?**********
a great answer to Bob's question that he uses to answer a question that Babblers ask....
as Zen says, the archives are the answers.
i came, i saw, i left. i came back and i rebelled and i was blocked for 16 weeks and have no feeling whatsoever of "investment" in this site now. except for the blocking system. it will ALWAYS bother me.
i firmly believe that it is detrimental to a person's mental health to be blocked for more than a month. and that should only happen if it is something really offensive.
there are many people who only have an online life and when that goes because they tilted at the windmill a little too much, it hurts them and i believe causes feelings that i wouldn't want to have any other human to experience. not from my hand..........
it's a little kingdom here and i don't see any changing that now or ever.
i check in, out of curiousity, occasionally and i always see that things are the same.......
