> This is absurd - I sent several notifications. This is YOUR system, and YOUR rules, not mine, not ours. We follow your rules, within your system, there's a breakdown on your end, which is not ackhowledged, and we're told to resubmit our complaints...?

> Why, so they can be lost and/or ignored again?According the the archives of the notification system, you sent two notifications regarding the same poster and the same situation. Both were examined by administration, and found to be civil. Apparently you were not contacted with that result, which happens at times, most commonly when the poster sending the notification does not have BabbleMail activated. This was not the issue in your case. I offer my personal apology for the fact that no one notified you.
The guidelines require that the notification system be used to point out problems with posts. The idea behind it might be a good one -- it tends to reduce escalation between posters with dissenting views, for example, and it prevents posters from feeling hurt or unfairly accused when something they've written is pointed out as potentially uncivil.
I am very sorry that you feel as though your notifications have been ignored. As a deputy, I will only speak for myself, but I do try to keep up with notifications that come in. I have always been impressed by how conscientious both Dinah and 10derHeart are in their responses to notifications.
Please follow the site guidelines, even if you do not agree with all of them.
Respectfully,
Deputy Racer
