Well I wasn't paying for a therapy session, I simply asked a question. If it was about someone who nobody knows, they why not just say that? All I know it sure was funny for everyone, you included, for it being about somebody that nobody knows about. Plus there were responses that it was a "she" and that came to babble chat.
As far as it being about a babbler, if not me, than who? Okay, I get that you can't name names because that is uncivil. But wouldn't a poem about a babbler like that be uncivil in the first place? And not only was it started by a deputy (past or present), it was reinforced by 2 other deputies, and not even flagged as being uncivil.
So basically we can write stuff that implies others, even babblers, and if we don't name them, we can hide behind that veil of uncivilness?
All I wanted was honesty, not a therapy session, but I guess it takes a lot of guts to admit the truth. Didn't seem like a too aufully hard question, if it was just answered, instead of therapist tricks you learn in school.
