> DR. Hsiung,
> In regards to now that you would like reminders posted as follow ups to the outstanding requests rather than starting a new thread, the above is the outstanding request where I have requested that you give examples of posts that request clarification or guidance regarding site rules that you could identify as being good for the community as a whole and those that you could give an example of that could not be good for the community as a whole, then I could know what kind of requests are which, and respond accordingly.
> Lou PilderDr. Hsiung,
In regards to your statements where you write,[...I do not have anything to add {at this time}...], I am unsure as to what you want to mean by that. I have researched the statement and find it used in various ways and I am unsure as to how you are wanting to use it here. In your statement , there is the part,{at this time} which is diferent from just writing that you do not have anything to add. This could mean that you could change your mind from not having anything to add {at that time} to that you could have something to add at{this time}.
So I am asking you, at this time, if you could now have something to add?
My request is based on the generally accepted practice concerning that your statement to the members to {just ask you} here about your rationales and such concerning actions that you take and your policy and rules and such could give rise to an expectation that if a member requests what you have posted that members can ask you about that a reply could be posted by you.
I am asking at this time for the criteria for a request to be good for the communty as a whole verses the criteria where a request could not be good for the community as a whole to be posted, as part of your rationale that you write here for one that would like to know your rationale to just ask you. It is my great fear here that the potential IMO to arrouse antisemitic feelings could arrise toward me here if the criteria for a request to be determined as good or not for the community as a whole are to remain in question. This is because there is your statement that members that post requests for clarification and guidance concerning site rules ask themselves if the requests could not be good for the community as a whole,and I am a member, and I am asking you to identify the criteria to determine that by you posting an example here of that because I have posted requests for clarification and guidance and such about your rules and I would like for the forum to be have known if any of my requests are those that you consider to be not good for the community as a whole by you posting examples, so that I could have the opportunity to respond to prevent IMO the potential for me to be stigmatized and be possibly subjected to antisemitic violence.
