Thanks for all the fish.
As a member of the private school board (or whatever) I'm saying that I think it's too far.
It hasn't gone anywhere yet. And Zoe has been informed of the discussion, this isn't private.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I'm saying that I think a warning is too far, that I think it's Orwellian.
I'd also like to note how hard the banning we DID do was on this board as a whole and that it should be avoided at almost all costs. Asking people to chill a little seems reasonable.

I think Mieskie was more than a prig. AND I think the banning happened too quickly.
And telling is fine, it's the "official" stamp on a stompy foot warning that has me concerned.

My requesting that she be officially warned has gone too far?!
NO, goodness no.
I'm just disagreeing with you and saying that actually doing it is going too far.

You know what. You're right. Obviously I'm the one in the wrong here. I'm the one who is Orwellian for asking that the CS be enforced.
I've exceeded my Bureaucracy posts for life and now am certainly out of equilibirum with Laura, my posting Doppelganger.
And on that, I'm done with Bureaucracy.
edited to say, For that reason, I've gone back through, pruned the deadwood of my thoughts (those that are repetitive, reductive, or otherwise not really useful) and made a nice little bonfire. I'm tired of repeating myself and trying to refine my ideas as I write and I don't see the point in leaving words that were written to get my thoughts straight, especially since it was all repetition on the same theme. I left two posts intact because those actually are the most coherent and clear of what I had to say.
If I'm going to be called Orwellian, then I prefer removing some of the words which make me seem that way.
Hence the deletia. Sorry if it makes the conversation confusing, but the context around what I said is not useful and it won't help you understand.
