Well......as a new member of the UKB site i have to say that i'm surprised and somewhat disappointed by this kind
of behaviour from adults!
We all write comments that may or may not be taken in the right spirit and recieve comments that we may or may not agree with.
But as adults we can also CHOOSE to ignor comments that we find confrontational or abusive and therefore negate the effect of
a member who may wish to stir up bad feeling.
Because all members can read these comments aimed at an individual it must surely mean that the friendly
atmosphere is deminnished for all members and i therefore think it is entirely selfish, inconsiderate and
inappropriate for any member to knowingly post a comment that is likely to stir up bad feeling.
On another site i use, the moderators take responsiblity for keeping the site as a friendly and companionable
place for people to exchange views and ideas. They have no time whatsoever for i'll feeling and the consequenses of
behaviour deemed inappropriate by admin is the immediate removal of that member or members accounts and a life-time
ban from the site.
As you can imagine, this is an extremely effective deterent to unfriendly behaviour and is perhaps something that
UKB admin might consider adding to the terms of use on the site so that the MAJORITY of users can enjoy
their time here without having to witness this kind of behaviour.
Kind regards to all
Vic.
