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.

Alot of times, it might be necessary to use the ignore function...most times just until emotions (strong ones) subside.

Dear KD,

I agree with you 100% on the comment made above.... but on the other hand - an innocent poster, trying to help someone, cannot stop a conflict from occurring if another person comes into the topic / advice being given... that was not meant toward (or for the 3rd party) and yet they take the thread personally and then start to attack the poster.

AND - using the IGNORE BUTTON - does not stop that type of thing from happening.....

I personally do not post to a thread if I find it offensive to me..... but YES I will often post back if I am attack.... BTW - I am trying hard to no longer reply back to personal attacks any more for I see that it creates upset for all here on PC and that is not fair to the other people in the forum.

My Promise..... is to use the Mod / Admin Button when needed (and) to use my ignore button.


Love,
Rhapsody -
