> I see you make the statement of us showing Twinleaf how to avoid being blocked and it makes my teeth cringe. Your questions about us policing our fellow babblers is sheer lunacy. ... that is how you make me feel when you ask us to something that isn't our job, we don't have the right tools

Is not letting a friend drive drunk policing them? I see helping someone avoid being blocked as being supportive. Which I think we agree is the "job" of posters here.
True, you don't necessarily have the tools to prevent them from being blocked. You can't take their keyboard away from them. But you do have influence. I should've said "you *may* have the power".
