OK. That's my mistake...do I really have to eat my socks? She posts young, then.

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

I'm going to take Cindy's advice and stay away from anything about her personally. I'm concerned only with the posts and those are what bothered me.
There are ways for a buffista to act no matter their age.
That's true.
erika--EAT YOUR SOCKS NOW!!!!
Not really, of course. :)
While certainly people can comment on a person's posting style or content, and how they react to that, but it's really not a good idea to comment on a person's intent (positively or negatively) - because there really is no way for us to know that.
I'd really like to see this put to rest at this point.
Don't we have thread names to discuss or things to vote on? Hey, how about we go enjoy the other threads some?
well, I'm not being tortured alone, put it to a vote first! Muhahaha. That would never happen...lost as it would be in discussions of whether vampire fangs could bite through acryllic socks, how nice Wesley would look wearing just a sock, and cross-cultural sock comparison.
My suggestion, such as it was, was for Official cluesticking to try to sort things out, rather than to whap someone over the head. Opening a dialogue, rather than slapping someone's wrist.
So far, we've had two problem posters, and both were, IMO, given ample time and opportunity to sort things out before any official action was taken. Channels of dialogue were more than open. (In Zoe's case, they still are.)
I don't think that part of the system's broken. We are all moderators here.
I also think that since the official warning to Zoe has already gone out, there's really nothing more to discuss about her "case." The problem may have already been solved.
I've deleted my last post, since it really is spectacularly unhelpful.
As you were.
