A Place of Safety
I expect simple behaviours here. Friendship, and love.
Any advice should be from the perspective of the person asking, not the person giving!

I will tell you, however, why I am not.

I am so heartily sick of the inability of people here to behave in a polite, civilised manner that I am letting you all get on with it. I want to see you create the place you deserve.

So maybe you need to decide what the place is that you deserve.

The moderator is not me. He contacted me today to ask for advice. I asked him to use his best judgment, which might include allowing the fighting to continue if he saw fit.

What you need to understand is that I care. You also need to realise that the behaviour here has stopped me from taking any pleasure whatsoever in coming here. Now, my pleasure is irrelevant. My displeasure is, however, very relevant.

I am not about to kick anyone out. If the moderator does that, something which I hope will not happen but will NOT control, I will be sad that it has happened, but not grieve for the absence of the individual(s), however few or many they are and whoever they turn out to be.

I am simply watching you create the place you deserve.

I wonder if it is heading in the direction that you want?

There are no age checks on this forum. If the law says you need (eg) parental consent to post here then you need that consent.
Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
So it is up to you. If you post here we assume that you are of legal age to do so or have consent if not, and we do not want to know any different
