Thank you. So, you agree there was cyber-bullying or stalking, but you think that as long as it is restricted to the PIT, it’s OK? * I see your point*, but I think it’s part of a larger pattern of behavior. I think the PIT thread should be closed.
Yes, that’s true, *but when they bring their shit over here- it then becomes your shit to deal with. *
That is not what he posted. Stalking means going around and harassing an individual in multiple threads for no purpose other than to, well, harass them. I suppose if someone opened a Pit thread every 2 weeks about a poster, that might be harassment in the Pit, but that isn’t what was going on there.
What about when you do? If a mod ok’s it* I’d be happy to link to your crossposts on here and the Giraffeboard. So far, you’re the only person who’s brought specific shit back and forth.
*I suspect this requires mod-dispensation, so…sorry, no links until a mod sez it’s ok.
Thread topics often drift, which often results in the thread being moved to another forum. I am not changing anything or setting any sort of precedent.
Many of the posts in this thread are discussing Broomstick and the content of her posts. Since they are not being discussed in the context of ATMB (how they relate to the board, its rules, and the enforcement thereof) those discussions belong in the Pit thread. But instead they are being made here. That is dragging this thread off topic. If it continues to veer off topic, then I have to either close it or move it.
If it moves to the Pit, you won’t be able to discuss moderator actions further in this thread (sorry, I don’t make the rules). That’s why I’m hoping to steer this thread back on topic enough that I don’t have to take any action on it.
Moving THIS THREAD to the Pit, tho is moving a thread opened to discuss mod actions to the Pit. So, whether you INSTRUCT posters one way or the other won’t change that this thread was opened with the specific goal of talking about mod action or inaction. That’s what I’m sayin, ya digs?
I don’t really care too much, but I’ve seen similar things happen here and it just mucks up the waters.
ymmv
ETA: So… with this last exchange, it looks like we’re discussing mod actions again, tho. So maybe we’re all ok.
.
I get what you’re saying, but if the discussion devolves into just a discussion about Broomstick and her posts then it’s no longer appropriate for ATMB.
Might be best just to shut the thread down at that point. Hopefully we won’t get there.
Which makes it a no win situation for a mod. They will get an ATMB thread complaining about either option, move it or lock it. Moving it is probably the preferred option, IMHO.
But I do want to say that the only person who’s actually running back and forth between boards and crossposting identical comments on both sites is DrDeth. So, if there’s stalking going on, there’s only one person doing it.
