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?

Doesn't it just perpetuate the constant arguing and carry on to bring it out into the public, because then others will feel the need to get involved and this site at times already resembles a school yard.

@StormInaTeacup isn’t that every site?

@Wedgy i wouldn't know about other sites, I don't even use Facebook

@StormInaTeacup it will continue the auguring but won’t this also keep others safe?
It’s sucks that there’s not peace and a pity that this site will have lots of toxic people, but doesn’t my posts kind of help in that? It will mean we can call out awful people

@StormInaTeacup The school yard comment is spot on

@Wedgy I understand what you are saying but it's actually not possible. So many different people, with different values, ideals, not everyone will thank you for it. So the rules are there to ensure a baseline for expected behaviour from everyone.

@StormInaTeacup I also understand what you’re saying but literally anything you could possibly do and someone is not going to like it.
I do think rules obviously should be there to help us maintain good behaviour but others will break those rules and what will happen to everyone else who doesn’t know any better to see which users are bad or good? I guess I could report them, would you agree with that option?

@Wedgy the report option is there if you feel a user is harassing or breaking the TOS.
