Given the number of sea lions some of my posts have begun to attract recently, I’m making my posts follower-only.
I’m here to share my thoughts and have conversations, not deflect drive-by douchebaggery like I’m goalkeeping at a game of fling-shit football.
That is when someone keeps harping at you while insisting they're just trying to get on the same page or help you out, yes?
Oh my gosh, yes! I've dealt with too many of That Guy over the years: in office & business dealings, in my hobbies, even in church & my circle of friends. It sucks you've been plagued by them recently.
The #Fedi concept is so new to me. It's amazing - connected communities w/ civility guidelines that support & protect each other.
The server I'm on is pretty small. May I share your decision with our Admin so we can start conversation w/ our peeps & set constructive expectations, too?
@BeckieSueDalton Sure, but also see this (I reversed by decision based on it; it has unintended consequences):
@aral
Thank you for that heads up! It's an important conversation for us to have, and seeing how other groups successfully weave their standards with common sense provides a solid place to start.
