Oh gosh, if the point did not come across clearly in this post… I 100% agree and support that you may and SHOULD block any communications from individuals who are abusive towards you.
That point obviously got lost in me being so pissed off at the other person.
That is 100% my bad.
You are, and always have been, a selfless contributor to the community. an intelligent and thoughtful person, a great sounding board for this kind of nonsense, and an actual friend which is harder to find around here.
In making my point to tell the other person to f-off and not blame me for their mess, I was obviously not clear enough in saying “person” you got blocked for being a pain and it is up to “person” to have an attitude adjustment to make things right for yourself. And then and only then you (bugged) MIGHT want to deal with them again.
And for anyone that might have gotten to this post and this comment… this post is 100% not meant to be a dig at buggedout. So please do not interpret it that way as it seems I failed at being clear.
Sorry bugged. ❤️
You don't need to apologize. I do genuinely appreciate your post and comments.
I do acknowledge that my decision to take a stand against this abusive individual is the catalyst, or at least the fuel for the latest blowup. I am so sorry that he has then gone on to abuse you after you tried to help him.
I guess my question is more for the broader SGS community. Is tolerating abuse what SGS is about? Because if it is then I won't be staying on in this role much longer.
Not at all. Abuse has consequences. Especially personal abuse should not be tolerated at all.
