139. Hey folks. I truly understand the feelings expressed....

I also realize that even among HOF members, we will have disagreement. Emotions have been understandably raw for some time and increasingly so, given recent events. I know mine have. Still, I'd like to think we can disagree strongly with each other when the need arises, but without personal issues coming in.

One of the threads for which sea received a hide, included some posters rehashing all the old painful issues of years past that we've all tried so hard to move forward from. I surely don't want HOF to experience anything similar to those unfortunate painful days. I surely hope all understand where I'm coming from and that this is a general statement not targeted at any one person in this thread....

Times like this we just need to stick together, I think... Sometimes that may mean agreeing to disagree.

Shall we discuss them one by one, Orrex? I think that is reasonable. Shall you go first? Please do. Tuesday Afternoon Jul 2014 #31

Perhaps you could indicate specifically why you think the hides are unwarranted. Orrex Jul 2014 #81

well later in the thread DonCoquixote Jul 2014 #114

True, but Violet Crumble has handily addressed that concern Orrex Jul 2014 #131

True, but I adressed that concern DonCoquixote Jul 2014 #147

Your discussion of pancakes offends me Orrex Jul 2014 #150

noted, however DonCoquixote Jul 2014 #167

Most of them would never have been hidden if another person wrote them. Squinch Jul 2014 #62

That's an interesting claim. How might we verify this? Orrex Jul 2014 #66

I, for one, would like to see ALL of seabeyond's hidden posts since the inception of DU3 Tuesday Afternoon Jul 2014 #68

Yes. THAT is what I'd surely like to see. theHandpuppet Jul 2014 #69

The hidden messages are easy enough to find Orrex Jul 2014 #73

OK, I am just going to say it out loud. I am NOT willing to take Skinner's word on this. I want to Tuesday Afternoon Jul 2014 #76

It's fair to question it, sure. Orrex Jul 2014 #80

I would agree that anonymity should not be breached lightly theHandpuppet Jul 2014 #82

I agree. And this should be true on Discussionist as well. Louisiana1976 Jul 2014 #89

Personally, I think the post only should be judged. Tuesday Afternoon Jul 2014 #119

I agree with a portion of your suggestion theHandpuppet Jul 2014 #127

Maybe, if admin allowed the rest of us to :read only: the host group I could agree otherwise Tuesday Afternoon Jul 2014 #134

I'm pretty new to hosting and newer still to any kind of adminstrative duties theHandpuppet Jul 2014 #153

Going to look now. This must be why she is Tuesday Afternoon Jul 2014 #202

We might look at all the astonishingly crappy posts that other people post that are not hidden by Squinch Jul 2014 #90

A good start, I agree Orrex Jul 2014 #92

Is there a reason you are feeling the need to give your seal of approval as to whether you think Squinch Jul 2014 #93

What manner of response would you have preferred? Orrex Jul 2014 #94

It's just that you appear to need to tell us if you think we pass some muster of which Squinch Jul 2014 #97

I'm the arbiter of my own opinion Orrex Jul 2014 #98

So I tested this theory... and in fact you are correct. Agschmid Jul 2014 #173

This is pretty ingenous of you, and I have to say that I am not surprised about the outcome. Squinch Jul 2014 #174

Not sure, I made sure my alerter did not hold back. Agschmid Jul 2014 #187
