The thing is, when one discusses a conflict publicly, it involves those who don't want to be involved, who come here to obtain support and see it given...when it's public it involves MANY more than just those that are directly involved in the conflict (as has happened in recent events and several times prior). A public "quarrel or feud" can affect many more than just those directly involved and generally splinters...keeping it going and upset lasting longer. I've seen it many times.

We have to respect EVERYONE here as PC to the best of our capabilities.

The guidelines were set with GREAT experience in forum operations. They're not going to be the *perfect* answer for all in every instance but are more as a guide to helping PC, and its members have a relatively safe and supportive experience here. If anyone would like to discuss those guidelines, please feel free to contact any member of the administration team.

But for now, the guidelines are as they are.

If anyone has issue with another member, try to keep the guidelines as best as possible and contact a member of the team if it's necessary and we'll do all we can. Alot of times, it might be necessary to use the ignore function...most times just until emotions (strong ones) subside.
