We reached a consensus on the excessive posting issue and all but a few rebels have appreciated and adhered to the guideline. How about if we reach a similar consensus regarding abusive language? I’d like to hear some feedback on how people feel about this sort of behavior, either observing it in others, being the brunt of it, or even dishing it out? Do you actually feel better after verbally abusing someone, or does it leave you feeling polluted? If I were to mandate behavioral guidelines, it would violate the democratic, community spirit I’ve tried to establish on FFL. But if we can collectively agree upon some basic standards of respect and decency, perhaps we’ll all feel motivated to live up to them. Also, I won’t be playing the “heavy” if I have to ban someone for a week for violating something we have all agreed to.
