>>Are you saying that if I post all my replies people will think that I haven't been punished enough?
NO! I'm sorry if that's what it sounded like. Not only is that not what I am saying... but I think if they are making a judgement as to "how much you should be punished" then that is not a good thing for them to be doing. I would doubt that people would be looking at it that way.
And I don't think people should want or need to hear how hurt you were by the block. You are right about that.
All I meant was that some people may see the point of the block as being that you should take time away from there. That is all I meant by "perspective".
I guess I mean like being a member of a group, and for some reason they give you a "block" for a period of time, and the intention is for you to spend some time away from the group doing other things, and then when you come back they find out that the whole time you were blocked you weren't doing anything else but instead spent the whole time looking in the windows and following all the group activities.
And I'm also not saying that's what you were doing, but that's what it might appear to some people. It just might feel creepy to some people. Might not. And I was only thinking of that as a possibility, you will know better if that is not the case and if so my comment is irrelevant.
I only mentioned it to help make sure that your return there goes smoothly. I am really sorry I wasn't clear and that I upset you.
I know you were very hurt by this and I am hoping that the reason they implement the block is to help you become a better member there, not to "punish" you. I think the idea of keeping all of your future posts for a bit of time to review them shows that you are thinking of ways to be a better member.
I am hoping that when the block is over you are able to return there and continue to benefit from their support, but I am also hoping that you will continue to be a member of the community here to receive our support and to continue to offer yours.
Again, I am really sorry if my post upset you, that was not my intention, and it was not my intention to imply that this block period hasn't been painful for you, or that it shouldn't be, or that there is a certain way I think you should behave when you return. And I also don't think or expect that they should be judging you upon your return there, but that may be in the nature of some people, and I want you to protect yourself so that you don't get hurt again. And yet here I am upsetting you... I'm sorry Green.
