respect for others goes a long way

Blocking members will not be returning. It was a pox on this website’s history. I am apologetic that I ever let it happen.
Here are the thoughts behind my decision:
If you post on a discussion board, you are opening yourself up to opposing views. It’s the same as standing in the public square of a town and espousing your opinion.
If the poster does not like another person’s opinion, the poster has the right to not listen to them (ignore). The poster does not have the right to silence the differing opinions (blocking).
If you post to the discussion boards, be ready for differing viewpoints and opinions. If you don't want opposing viewpoints, don't post to a public forum.
Got something to say?
