To all who has been concerned. [View all]
This discussion thread was locked by Neoma (a host of the Feminists group).
I apologize for pinning these posts at the top for the moment, but it is for the people who has been asking a lot of questions and voicing concerns. I am trying to sweep up the mess as well as I can. Now, onward!
I had said near the bottom of my last thread, this:
Now my dear co-hosts, I am removing all of you, but I will not ban you or anyone else unless it is very clear to do so because of verbal abuse, bullying, provoking, etc. (This goes the same for people who are not hosts.) I am giving you a chance. I am locking all threads that has caused disruption.
This thread is a warning, please keep these discussions in H&M or in the pinned threads. Please calm down. The fact that you are still here is a miracle, and I'm surprised you haven't caught on to that.
To people who are still confused (I don't see how you could be) as to why I was angry enough to ban iverglas that led to my co-hosts focusing the flame-war on me, someone found this for me, and now I give you the off-DU forum thread she made that ticked me off: http://feministshosts.boardhost.com/viewtopic.php?id=4&p=2 It's the forum I didn't want made.
I would not have taken the course of action of posting that long thread, if I didn't contact the administration. EarlG has responded to me that his PM to me was not confidential. I would have posted it in the long thread if I knew it wasn't confidential, so here it is:
I went with a slightly modified version of the 2nd one. With people wanting an explanation of my actions thus far, I believed they needed it. It coincided with all the rules that Democratic Underground has in place. I am proud of what Democratic Underground has done with the place. I like the juries, I like MIRT, I like how the group hosts and co-host system is in place. After hearing how horrible the jury system it is, I have seen the direct opposite result throughout this flame-war.
To those who cannot read the Forum & Hosts group (Yes, it's allowed to quote from there):
Then with Skinner:
On another note, I am in need a new co-host. (I'm choosing one at a time for the moment.) A person has to sleep, and eat, and use the bathroom...(Something I really couldn't do this week. I lost 11 pounds.) So I need someone to watch when I'm away. I am going to be choosing very carefully and it might take a little time. I definitely don't want to rush this process. (I don't think anybody can blame me for that.) If you want to look forward to a brighter Feminist forum every day. Please PM me.
