In The Spirit of Unity
15 years ago now right back at the beginning of SR Peter, one of the mods here then, wrote this for the Alcoholism forum in 2003.
Different forum - same ideals.
We are all winners - and we are all on the same team.
Please - do remember our Newcomers forum guideline.
The start of a new month is always a busy time.
We'll see a lot of new faces here, a lot of people hurt and looking for help and support.
I'm sure we all want them to find a helpful supportive and welcoming environment.
If someone else is sharing their experience, rather than denigrating their experience, consider simply adding yours.
Let the reader decide which path they'd like to follow.
If you see a post you think breaks the rules, report it using the red and white triangle on the post.
If someone in particular bothers you consider putting them on ignore.
If you want to discuss any mod decisions or policies please PM Anna myself or any of the other forum staff here.
Discussion is what we're here for - but calling people out in threads is not and has never been the appropriate way to solve disputes here.
thanks everyone

Ignore bothersome members. If there is someone on the forum that bothers you, select the Ignore option on the drop down menu under their name on the post. You won't see any posts from this member again.
