What you suggest would require a fair approach by SI Adminstration. Do you think that possible? Maybe. Right now I don't believe it. For days now I listened to a friend of mine be not only trashed but have posts expressing violence to her. And I was quiet. Yet at least two people brought it to the attention of SI Administration and now there is an "oh, it was old" or "no links" excuse given as to why there was no action. So I make a vague allusion to defending myself and/or others and I'm booted. There was no active or explicit threat in my post. I did want it to be clear that I would not take what was being dished out. And it's dished out with impunity when they know no action will be taken. If it's true that talk and threats of violence will not be tolerated, that's fine with me. They bore and tire me. Plus I live with them in the 3d world. I sure don't need them here. But do you think it possible that there will be an even hand dealt, or that anyone can say anything about X and that you and I can not speak in the same course language as others or make clear that we would defend ours?
