Exclamation Conflict Resolution

We have a steady influx of new members now and that's great to see.

I just wanted to let everyone know what the grievance process is here.

I get that the things people say can sometimes get under our skin and stay there for a while....but calling out people publicly for something they did/said, no matter how justified you think that is, can just perpetuate ill feeling.

I think everyone understands hurting someone cos they hurt you is not the way for anyone to heal and move on.

There are other options for recourse here.

If someone says something to upset you, you can put them on ignore.
'Add to ignore list' is an option on the drop down menu under everyone's user name beside their posts.

You will not see their posts again.

You can report posts if you think they break a rule.

Use the red and white triangle on the offending post.

You can also, if you really want to speak to them, send them a private message, in a civil and polite way.

Thanks

By doing that, it is basically saying "I hate your behavior so much, that I am going use it as my own". Say what???
Naw. I would rather use good role models. There are plenty of them on this site. Examples would be Dee and the rest of the mods who keep this a place of recovery.

Just adding to this today:

sometimes folks will post something that, while not against the rules, can really upset others.
If that happens to you, Anna or I or the other staff are always open to a PM.

I'll also add - if something you post upsets others, its always good to take a beat or two and think about that.
You may decide you were right to post as you did - or you may not.

Tough love has its place but sometimes it can go awry.
Best to apply carefully, and preferably with a good working knowledge of the responsee's story.
