Sigh, I know that has happened as a result of someone being harassed a couple of times here that I know of since I joined. I got caught up in a situation where I just posted to someone and was PM'd about the whole situation behind the scene a few months ago. It was acceptable in that situation somehow for that one person to leave and change their name without announcing the change.

And I can think of two instances where someone made an anouncement of leaving and that person was walking a line. I quietly PM'd that person to relay their value to PC and later those people told me that I saved their lives, they were so badly triggered and not thinking right.

Yes, I can see some upsetting feelings revolving around someone leaving etc. But, if someones life is saved because they sent out a message and was assisted in a quiet supportive way, that is significant in my honest oppinion.

I honestly hope this reminder doesn't cause anyone who has presented this behavior in the past to get upset again and leave, THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW that I know of. But I am a strong believer in "forgiveness" and working past our struggles that may have presented poor decisions, or clouded thinking or whatever.

I am not debating, I am just expressing my oppinion. I am just a lowly member struggling with my own MI and doing my best. I am certainly not a professional.
