  • Bad: Call someone out in a thread
    Bad: Criticize the forum in general
    Bad: Make general alarmist statements like "Schismatics taking over the forum!"

    Good: Send a quick PM to the moderator when a troublemaker is sighted, so he can be dealt with.

    I saw Ambrose's thread, but I completely ignored it.

    I wouldn't have ignored a PM bringing up legitimate concerns about "AllMonks".

    Want to say "thank you"?

  • Don't blame me.  I never read anything that he posted.  No interest.
    However, that's good advice about the PM.  I tend to be critical of others & perhaps embarrass them so now use the PM.  There seems to be a lot of people here that are new to the faith & yes, they should be learning more before they spout off.

  • I have been guilty of this as well.

    Will try to be better about that.
