I don't see myself as doing that to you myself, since I do respond to you here.

You wrote,[...the leader could be seen as protecting..the Jewish member..]
Attempting to isolate the Jewish member with any encouragement to the other members to do so by encouraging following your example of not responding to me, could lead a subset of jurists to think that you are maliciously attempting to inflict emotional harm toward me. For your rule is to not tell others to not respond to another here but you are doing it anyway to me.
If there are those that respond in an uncivil manner, you have a rule to apply sanctions to them, yet today, there are years of outstanding notifications to you from me, years of statements posted here without your tag-line t please be civil that inflict emotional harm against me that attack my character including that I am a disturbed person, which I am not. By you allowing the members to throw stones at me here, you can encourage hatred toward me to be seen as being good for this community as a whole, according to your thinking. For if a statement is not sanctioned, you say that it is not against your rules. But there is a rule not to post what could lead one to feel put down or accused and there is a rule that says that members are not to post what could lead another to feel that their faith is being put down. You admit that you use selective enforcement of your rules, and it is plainly visible that others here could be led to think that they are allowed to defame me with impunity from your rules on the basis that those statements remain unsanctioned in the thread where they were originally posted. This could decrease the respect, regard and confidence in which I am held and induce hostile and disagreeable opinions and feelings toward me.
Let us look at what you want readers to believe about that you do not respond to me so that others may not respond to me. That encourages others to not respond to me and could isolate me here and stigmatize me here.
And as I look at what you posted here about me, in shame, a have to ask what the good will be to come of your advocating that others not respond to me here.

That's the same idea. I'm glad I'm at least to some extent consistent. The good that could come is that you could be protected.

> BobMr. Hsiung,
You wrote the above in that you say that good can come to the community as a whole by you ignoring me which could encourage others to ignore me which then the good to the community is that I am protected.
On the surface of your statement here, there could be a subset of readers that throw stones at me and that would leave the other members unless you are wanting to mean that there are no members here at all that have dialog with me without throwing stones at me.
So if we think of what you wrote as that there are just asubset of members that you want to not respond to me that throw stones at me, I am only having dialog with a few members here. What I need to know is to what degree of stone-throwing that I am subjected to by the following members here. If 5 is the most extreme use of stone-throwing at me here and1 is the least, how would you rank the following members?
Here are the top ten members of organized posters that I have dialog with here. Please put a number from 1 to 5, as 5 being the worst, after the members to show how you think the extent of stone-throwing at me is.
A. Phillipa
B. 10derheart
C. Dinah
D. Larry Hoover

To protect me by encouraging members to not respond to me is in and of itself could be thought to be an overgeneralization by you according to a subset of readers. They have a rational basis for thinking that because you did not specify who the members are or as to how many members are throwing stones at me. What you did post about me is that others might not respond to me if you did not respond to me, which could be thought by a subset of readers that you want to encourage them to shun me here, or isolate me if they see that you do not respond to me. That could stigmatize me here and put me in a false light which could decrease the respect, regard and confidence in which I am held and induce hostile and disagreeable feelings and opinions of me.
Let their be no misunderstanding here. Those that throw stones at me here have your remedy to be sanctioned for anything that could be posted that leads me to feel put down or accused. That would protect me from further insults from anyone that throws stones at me here because they would be blocked from posting any more of it. If you were to rescind your statement in question here that you do not respond to me so that others might not respond to me, that could go a long way in stopping others from being persuaded by you to what could amount to you encouraging readers to shun me here. I am asking that you post now here something like:
NOTICE TO MEMBERS
There is a post by me here that could be thought that I am encouraging members to shun Lou. I take full responsibility for what I post and I am sorry if any readers received that message from what I posted about Lou and should not have posted it. So what I am going to do is to post response to all of Lou's outstanding notifications starting with the most recent ones to show readers that I am taking back what I posted about Lou.

That's true, it could.
You know, I wouldn't say (if I did before, I rescind that) I want to encourage members not to respond to you. What I want is to show members that they have the option of responding or not responding to you.

What I hear you saying is that my remedy helps you feel protected here. That's my intent, anyway.

> BobMr. Hsiung,
You say that it is your intent to protect members, including myself, by applying your remedy to sanction statements that could put down or accuse another. But it is also then implying that if you use your option to not respond to me, that you will then not use your remedy to protect me from the stone-throwers here. There is a rational basis for me to think that because you say that you have a notification procedure to get from those that they think that a statement could induce harm to them if it is allowed to be seen as civil by you and that you will abide by your policy to act on the notification in one of two ways, but you give yourself the option of acting on notifications from me or not. By the fact that I have posted reminders to you here of outstanding notifications, those were the ones that you used your self-made rule to give yourself the option to not respond to notifications from me. What this shows goes to your intent in that you say that it is your intent to use your policy to prevent harm to members from posts that defame another, except posts of that nature directed at me as that it is plainly visible the years of {stone-throwers} that the subject here is of now. If you do not intend to protect me as the others here, that shows to a subset of readers a malicious intent against me in particular because you admit that your policy is to protect members from defamation by sanctioning posts of that nature as being accused or put down by a statement here. Yet today, there are years of outstanding notifications from me to you and posts directing harmful defamation toward me that are allowed to stand without your tagline to please be civil where the tortuous statement is originally posted. By you giving yourself the option, you also give yourself the option for harm to come to me, which subset of readers could think is your intent. They could have a rational basis to think that because you admit that your remedy to prevent the harm from tortuous statements is to sanction those type of statements, yet you allow those to be directed at me without sanctioning them with your tagline to please be civil where the statement is originally posted, which could mean to those readers that what you are doing here could be considered to be a malicious attempt to harm me by using the member's actionable posts to remain to be seen as civil by you by you not using your own policy to protect me. You say that there is not an excuse to allow uncivil posts, yet today, you have posted in one particular case that you have an excuse to not sanction defamation toward me bypostng your tagline to pleas be civil where the statement is originally posted, because you archived the post. But there could have been a notification from me about that statement as you admit. That could lead a subset of readers to further consider your actions toward me here to be malicious in your intent to harm me by allowing members to defame me here because it is reasonably foreseeable by your own admission, that there are natural consequences that you are making the decision to bring about, namely the harm that could come to me by you not using your own policy to protect me from the stone-throwers here by sanctioning the defamation posted at me here in the thread where the statement is originally posted to that statement, because it is within your power to use your sanctioning of the defamation toward me here, and you choose to allow it to stand because you say that it will be good for you and the community as a whole to ignore some of my pleas to sanction the anti-Semitic statements and the defamation directed to me here.
Now that you have in place that you can allow defamation directed at me here so that I am not protected, the additional consequences that flow naturally from allowing hatred to be posted against me here could lead a subset of readers to think that is what your intent is. They have a rational basis to think that because there are now additional reminders from me concerning more outstanding notifications which shows that you have not used your policy to protect me here which could lead to those thinking that you have an actual intent to allow harm to come to me.
I think that it could go a long way to preventing more harm coming to me from the defamation allowed to be posted here by you against the Jews and me here by you not posting your tagline to please be civil where the statement is originally posted, for you to go to your archives of notifications and start using your own policy that could protect me from the emotional/psychological harm that could come to me from your intention to allow some of my notifications to be ignored by you for it lies within your power to prevent harm by protecting me from the defamation by sanctioning those statements.

1. I do sometimes use my remedy to protect you. Most recently:

2. It's tricky (requires skill, knack, or caution) because if I apply my remedy, the poster could feel like I'm throwing a stone at them.

Note my objection to your use of selective enforcement of your rules as can be seen by your reply to me here that I am responding to.
Time and space do not allow me at this time to expound on what a subset of readers could think you are admitting to be doing here as {selective enforcement}. To sanction one stone-thrower does not prevent the harm that could come to me by you allowing others to inflict emotional pain upon me with defamation of insults to my character that you allow to be seen as civil and supportive and will be good for this community as a whole by you not posting your tagline to be civil to the defamation toward me to the statement where it is posted originally. Your sanction of one does ot annul the fact that there are other defamatory postings allowed to be seen by you as civil where they are originally posted, nor does it address the antisemitic statements being also allowed to be seen here as supportive by the nature that there s not your tagline to please be civil where the anti-Semitism is posted originally.
In fact, your admission of using selective enforcement here is contrary to your TOS as in your FAQ. As to if a subset of readers could think that your intent is to allow harm to those that you want to be harmed, that is a separate subject that I would like to keep separate for now. This is because a rational reader could think that if the fire department came to a house on fire and there was a tree on fire in the yard and put that fire out but left the house to burn, that their selective enforcement of their obligation to put out the fire was not done and could have had a guilty reason in their minds to allow the house to burn down. This "guilty mind" is a concept that is used in determining the {intent} of one that harms another either by themselves inflicting the harm or allowing others to inflict the harm to another when they could have prevented the harm. Some could think that for the fire-fighters to watch the house burn down when they could have prevented it, that those fire fighters were culpable as if they started the fire themselves.
The historical record shows the tragic consequences to those that were victims of discrimination by selective enforcement. Your TOS could lead a subset of readers to think that when you say that members are to be civil at all times and that being supportive takes precedence, that you mean that you will not use selective enforcement in applying your rules here.

True. And when the police say that drivers are to obey the speed limit at all times, a subset of drivers could think that they will give everyone who goes too fast a ticket.

> BobMr. Hsiung,
Your posting here of what could be thought that you are using an analogy to compare yourself with a traffic policeman giving speeding tickets could IMHO seriously mislead a subset of readers. A rational basis for thinking that you are comparing yourself with a traffic policeman is because you posted this here, so readers could think that because you posted it, you are presenting it as a way of readers to consider your role and function here as owner/operator of this site. But another analogy could have been posted here by you to IMHO more accurately reflect your role as owner/operator here.
I think that a more accurate representation of your role here could be thought to be like a 911 operator for taking emergency calls. I base this on the fact that you have made it available to readers to {notify the administration} by clicking on a box, like making the 911 call. And also that you have a team of deputies that function to implement your policies and rules to prevent harm that could come to members by statements that put down or accuse another which defamatory statements directed at another member could do. And I have made the objection that your use of selective responding to notifications to the administration could lead to tragic consequences to those members that become victims to harmful statements because you will not act on them according to your own policy in your TOS here.
If a 911 operator was to respond selectively to calls, some jurisdictions could bring civil/criminal charges to that operator for any deaths or injuries that resulted because the operator refused to respond to the emergency call. In some jurisdictions, the failure of the owner/operator and any deputies of such that allowed a statement to stand in a web site that caused a death of someone could be held liable for the death because they could have prevented the death and did not sanction the post that had encouragement for one to kill themselves. The harm that could come to members here could be of the same nature because the population here is vulnerable to killing themselves due to the fact that in a mental health community, posters are in a state of seeking help from depression and addiction and can be under the influence of mind-altering drugs in collaboration with a psychiatrist/doctor that you allow to be promoted here. Those drugs are under scrutiny and many research studies show that they can induce suicidal/homicidal thinking. To allow members to be recipients of defamation here without you or your deputies of record sanctioning the defamation, could lead the victim of the hate to be drawn down into a vortex of depression that could lead to suicide.
In other posts that you use selective enforcement, these are those that could arouse anti-Semitic feelings and anti-Islamic feelings. Your rule is to not post anything that could lead one to think that their faith is being put down. If you select which faiths are allowed to be put down, such as allowing anti-Semitic statements to be seen as civil here where they are originally posted here, then a subset of readers could think that your policy is to discriminate against Jews here, which a subset of those that follow hate-groups could think that this site is an anti-Semitic site based on their definition that if a site has an anti-Semitic policy, it is an anti-Semitic site just as if a company had an antisemitic policy, it could be thought to be an anti-Semitic company.
I am asking you to:
A. Immediately post to the anti-Semitic statements and the statements that defame me that you allow to be seen as civil here where they are originally posted something like:
NOTICE TO ALL READERS
I realize now that my use of selective enforcement of my rules here is contrary to sound mental-health practices and can lead to discrimination which is an abuse of power. This could also lead to members that are victims of discrimination here to have feelings of unworthiness that could lead to suicide.
I am taking the following remedial steps to help those that feel that I have contributed to the deterioration of your mental health
First, I will respond now to all of Lou's outstanding notifications by referring to my archives of notifications. Then Lou will have the opportunity to respond to what I post to them.
Second, in Lou's responses, I will be able to see more clearly how members could benefit from what is in his responses and retract my 3- consecutive post rule.
Now I think that if you do that, {improvement} to the community could be a result and lives could be saved, addictions and life-ruining conditions could be avoided and members could hear from me by reading my responses to your replies to my outstanding notifications.

You wrote,[...not responding...could lead..to feel neglected and unvalued and hurt and angry...].
You agree that by you not responding to my notifications, as well as others, that there could be those feelings that you described induced into the one that you refused to respond to. Yet today, you present yourself as having a mental-health site for support and education.
I say to you that as long as my notifications to you remain un responded to, that any claim for the promotion of this site by you that the readers could have their mental-health improved, could be thought by a subset of readers to be false, inaccurate and grossly misleading and could result in the deaths of a subset of readers. I have a rational basis to think this because you agree that discrimination is an abuse of power and that being supportive takes precedence and that members are to be civil at all times. And that your policy is to not wait to sanction a statement that could put down or accuse someone here because one match could start a forest fire. The fact that you changed from following your own policy does not annul the fact that the policy was a good and just policy to prevent harm to the recipient of the put down or accusation. If you changed your thinking that put downs and accusations could not induce harm to the recipient of those, and that one match could not start a forest fire, please post that here now.
Now one match could start a forest fire even if you have changed your thinking that it can't. And when one knows that there is a fire started and refuses to have it put out when they could have done so, then there are those that see the refusal as allowing the escalating of the fire, and in this site, promoting the fire of hate that could lead to the feelings that you admit could be the result of the fire that you refuse to have put out. As long as you and your deputies of record ignore my notifications, the statements that I have alerted to you in them, could be seen as civil by you, for you state that un sanctioned statements are not against your rules. The statements that are against Jews, which are anti-Semitic statements, being allowed to be seen where they are posted as being civil by you, can carry the flame of hate way beyond this forum that you say is for support.
The wrongs that I seek to condemn here, that I see as calculated by you and your deputies of record, are so malignant, so devastating, that I can no tolerate them being ignored, for I see it as the greatest menace of our times. The common sense of mankind demands that a psychiatrist that admits that not responding to the notifications that could arouse anti-Semitic feelings sent to him can induce a degrading of the sender's mental health, and start a forest fire of hatred toward the Jews, to be met here to restore the human dignities of those that are the one's whose faith is allowed to be seen as being put down here. for if this is not met here, hatred toward the Jews could get a renewed strength by seeing anti-Semitism as civil here, which could lead a subset of readers to think that this site is a living symbol of racial hatred carried out by a man with great power of the internet to leave no home in the world to be untouched.
You say that what goes here is what is conducive to the civic harmony and welfare of this community. We will never forget the record on which anti-Semitism was judged yesterday. And we will know that it will be judged again regardless if you are allowed to continue to use discrimination as a tool to not respond to my notifications. For by the fruits that come from that, you will be judged.

That was my old policy. My new policy is to accept matches that I see as unlikely to start a forest fire.

These are matches, not fires, but yes, I'm giving them the opportunity to escalate. If they do, then I'll do my best to put them out.

Mr. Hsiung,
You wrote,[...I'm giving them (statements that are anti-Semitic and statements that defame me and other uncivil statements) the opportunity to escalate...].
A subset of readers could think after reading that, that you are being malicious. They have a rational basis for thinking that because it is well-known that defamation and anti-Semitism posted here in particular unsanctioned ,could cause harm to the recipients of the defamation. And those readers could think that you as a psychiatrist could foresee that type of harm coming to those recipients of the hate being allowed to be seen as civil in the posts where they originate. Your TOS in the FAQ has not been changed and that is what overrides here. For if you now say that without changing your posted FAQ/TOS that you do not have to abide by your own rules and the enforcement of those rules, that subset of readers could think that you are maliciously attempting to manipulate the content that could allow particular people, such as myself, to be victims of the intentional infliction of emotional distress via defamation and anti-Semitism being allowed by you to escalate. When you allow the escalation, there could be the case where you could be too late to stop it, for the forum can go into homes all over the world and you are not 24/7 moderating your forum anyway, and you give yourself the option of not responding to my alerts to you via your notification system which could further lead those readers to think that you are being malicious here. They could think that it is your actual intention to cause injury to me by allowing third -party posts to defame me and insult my faith.

Mr. Hsiung,
Let there be no misunderstanding here. Your terms of service invite people to participate in a mental-health forum for support and your rules lead readers to think that they have a safe environment, and not be subjected to ridicule, mocking and taunting, debasement and other forms of defamation as your rule states to not post anything that could lead one to feel put down or accused and not to post insensitive content or vulgar language that could offend others. And also not to post what could lead one to feel that their faith is being put down.
You also list how you will enforce those rules and how one can alert you to posts through your notification system. That all can give readers an expectation of security that they will not have to suffer the harm that can come to them if defaming statements are directed against them, and if statements that put down their faith are posted here. But that expectation , now, could lead them falsely into a community that is not going to uphold those terms of service for you now state that you can turn a blind eye to much and allow defamation to be posted and those readers do not know that. They do not know that because your TOS states otherwise. A subset of readers could think that you are using deception now to attract members under the aspect that your rules will protect them when you state here that you are operating differently from your stated TOS. This could lead to harm coming to people that take you at your word when they come here and read your TOS that protects them from the harm of defamation since your rules state not to post what could lead one to feel accused or put down and not to post what could put down those of other faiths.
The harm from defamation being allowed to be posted is well-known by psychologists and psychiatrists. It could lead one to kill themselves. It would be too late for you to sanction a defamatory post then, after you allow {No non-Christian will enter heaven} to be seen as civil by you in the post where it is originally made. That could trigger a deep vortex downward of feelings of unworthiness, let's say, to a Jewish middle school girl that is already in depression as coming here for support. The support that she could receive is that she is inferior to Christians for the statement in question is analogous to {no Jew will enter heaven}. It is the statement in and of itself that insults the girl's faith, not as to if there is escalation. The statement is called a flame, and fans the flames of hatred toward the Jews, consigning them to an inferior status as that they will not enter heaven, but Christians can.
And you post a link that displays the swastika and will not delete it per my request to you.
The harm that could come to readers from here could be prevented by taking action, rather than refraining from action. And readers are led by your TOS to expect that they will be protected. By you luring members to think that, but then say that you will not act on defamatory statements or anti-Semitic statements unless there is escalation, could lead a subset of readers to think that you desire harm to happen to readers here by deceiving readers to believe that you will abide by your word in your FAQ/TOS to sanction what could lead one to feel accused or put down, when you turn a blind eye to hate posted here. They have a reasonable basis to think that because your TOS/FAQ says that in your enforcement section.
The natural consequences that come from defamation can inflict serious emotional/psychological harm to even the strongest victims here that you allow them to be debased by allowing defamation to stand were those statements are originally posted. For you also say that if a statement is not sanctioned, it is not against your rules. To lead people to think that they will be protected and then find out that you are not keeping your word in your TOS IMHO ,is a terrible, is a terrible, is a terrible thing to do.

I think there is in fact a measure of security here. But the idea is no longer to try to make this a refuge. Though I still do plan to add a Refuge board.

You wrote,[...Where exactly do you think it does?...(that the FAQ states that you will not turn a blind eye to what could harm one here such as statements that put down or accuse or insult one's faith as per your TOS in your FAQ}
There are many aspects after reading your TOS/FAQ that could lead members to believe that you will not allow defamation or anti-Semitism to be seen as civil here and supportive.
The first and overriding part of your TOS is that you state that the goal here is for support. Rational readers could understand that you mean that unsupportive statements will be repudiated by you or your deputies of record. Otherwise, what is supportive could not be understood if un supportive statements were not sanctioned so that there was a differentiating of what is supportive and what is not supportive. This fact in your TOS/FAQ is still the same. If you wanted members to know that you will use discrimination as a tool to allow what is unsupportive, that could be made plain to readers and that is not stated in your TOS/FAQ. So members have an expectation of security that they will not be subjected to ridicule and debasement and humiliation and other forms of defamation on the basis that your goal is for support, and rational readers could think that defamation posted against one here is not supportive on the basis that you define what is not supportive as posting sarcasm, and statements that put down or accuse or put down another's faith and such, for support is the holding up to what the forum stands for, which is to help, not to harm, and defamation can harm. You even go further and state that support takes precedence, which a subset of readers could think rules out excuses for posting what could put down or accuse and such. And further, you state that if a statement stands without sanction, it is not against your rules. That could have readers understand what is or is not supportive here. Granted, you use discrimination as a tool to allow anti-Semitism to flourish here, but that shows something else. Granted, you post what displays the swastika, but that is something else in regard to that a subset of readers could think that you were negligent in posting the link with the swastika, but you will not remove it which speaks to something much worse.
Another aspect of the issue here is that you state that notifying the administration gets a post to you and your deputies. This gives an expectation that you will act on the notification, and in fact, you state that you will. The fact that you say that you will use discrimination against me in regards that a subset of readers could think that you are making me the only exception to your own policy, which is part of your TOS. I am treated differently and subjected to you using a blind eye by denying me the same terms and conditions as other members which prevents me from using the notification system to stop defamation and anti-Semitism here from being seen as civil by you. You say that it will be good for you and the community as a whole for you to not respond to me. To use {what will be good for the community as a whole}comes from European fascism and legitimizes genocide, slavery and discrimination which are all abuses of power, in the minds of those that use that type of thinking. Unless you can see into the future, I do not think that you could make such a claim that what you do in your thinking will be good for this community as a whole. and I do not know of any community that allows anti-Semitism to be seen as supportive, to be good. You name one if you know. And the historical record shows what happened to those that trusted those that said to trust them in that.

> Lou PilderMr. Hsiung,
Another aspect of your TOS/FAQ that leads members here to think that they will be protected your rules, and that you will not practices selective enforcement of those rules of yours, which could be considered to be discrimination, is that not only is your opening remarks for what is civil by you that your mission is for support and education, but you also write that the mission here is to exemplify {The Golden Rule}.
There are many variations of that, and in Judaism the overriding theme concerning that concept, is written in many parts of the scriptures that the Jews use. One passage says:
"The stranger who resides with you shall be to you as one of you citizens; you shall love him as yourself, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt."
The paramount meaning here is that of equality, which shows an abhorrence to discrimination. And other faiths say to treat your neighbor as yourself.
Now for that to be the mission of this forum laid out by you in your TOS/FAQ, reasonable readers could think that you mean that, and will not pervert the mission of the forum by using selective enforcement of your rules which can be discriminatory, to allow hatred toward the Jews to be promulgated here by turning a blind eye to anti-Semitic statements, leaving them to be seen as supportive by you where they are originally posted. And also, defamation posted here toward another allowed by you to be seen as civil where it is originally posted, contradicts your own mission as can be understood by a subset of readers that take you at your word that your mission includes the golden rule.
Now if you want to use selective enforcement of your rules to allow hatred toward the Jews to stand here, and defamation toward me to stand here, I say to you that as subset of reasonable readers could consider your mission to be a lie.
