This I wanted the ADMIN to see and answer about this rule.
So, I do posts about people being jerks to me and there’s this rule that says I cannot talk negatively about users.
Can you guys give your opinions about this rule?
I’ll change my posts so that it follows this rule but why can’t I bring up that users aren’t perfect? I might have not worded this correctly and I’m sorry for this but I want to know why can’t I expose users that have been (in my eyes) unfair to me?

Does it matter why? Their site, their rules. None of the rules they come up with are just for shits and giggles, it's done to make the site easier for them to run and better for the users. if I was to hazard a guess I'd say it's partly to stop loads of he said she said type posts with people airing their crap publicly

@Bushmanoz Yeah, but I would say wouldn’t it be good for people to show what bad things people have done on this site?
I guess you’re right by the first part of your paragraph but I would say some rules aren’t perfect and that you can just ignore the
“he said she said” types of posts

@Wedgy Hey I agree, I think people should be able to shame the users who send unwanted dick pics and all types of crap. It would stop a lot of them doing it..maybe..but like I said, it's their site and they have reasons.

@Bushmanoz Glad we can agree and this hasn’t gotten ugly, I just really want ADMIN to see this and for us to talk, it would be especially good because ADMIN hasn’t reacted to my message in any of his posts, but I guess he’s just busy which is perfectly understandable

@Wedgy What is it you are hoping ADMIN will do? The main problem with public shaming is there is no way to police it, with a few seconds of picture editing anyone could make it look like the other person said anything at all. The only thing that works is reporting, then Admin has access to the posts and messages and can see if it warrants any action

@Bushmanoz I see what you mean but I have though to link my DMs/PMs and that you can see for yourself if they should be called out.
It would just be that one DM/PM about my experience with them with no editing their and also what about sites like Twitch? How many message of Alinity did it take for Twitch to finally speak?

Bushmanoz · 56-60, M

@Wedgy No idea about Twitch, I use this and that's it. But do you mean you want to post one screen shot of their message with their user name showing? I don't think people will care as much as you think. Especially if it's over someone simply messaging you when you asked them not to. id personally like to save reporting for other things, like the unsolicited dick pics, the pedophiles, and the people who harass others
