Dear Chris,
The new addition in the moderation process does something funny with
me. It rather diminishes my joy of sharing in this forum.
I am still pondering why, and nevertheless will try to explain. So
far I found this forum a most beautiful place to share, explore and
have fun. For this I am utterly grateful to you. Just today I talked
with my group of trainees about it, encouraging them to join, talking
about the great open minded discussions we are having. Now I feel I
might have offered a toothless tiger to them.
What made you feel it necessary to go in this direction? I truly find
it a pity. I also believe it rather feeds distrust and hampers open
discussion. But I also must say I have no idea what disturbing mails
if any you might have had to deal with in the past. (But even than I
would rather like to choose to have my own opinion about it.)
And: I am totally aware this being your forum and therefore you
should truly do what fits to your needs. I also am glad you ask for
feedback and that is what I am trying to do with this mail.
I believe there is a part in me who wants to say: relax, you do not
need to protect us, we are all grown up and certainly had to deal
with a lot of worse stuff in our lives than hurtful and unfriendly
feedback. I just cannot believe that any one working with the tuff
issues we often have to face in constellations would want to choose
to take part in a forum that feels like a toothless tiger. So my
suggestion is: give some credit to our all ability to bounce back,
our own good judgement and let the forum fly!
With warmth, Sneh
