Conflict resolution.

Post by RJS1966 »

Holy crap there has been a lot of infighting and banning on here lately. If someone cannot get something off their chest and rebute/ refute inflammatory statements by others. Then there can be no resolution to a conflict. Banning someone or locking a thread does nothing but create resentment. I would like to propose a new section for these types of threads. My reasoning is twofold. First. It would give the moderators a break from having to be the bad guy. (Moving a thread instead of locking it /banning would eliminate the censorship of someone and allow them to voice their opinions and defend themselves.) Secondly. The two in conflict can have at it until they tire of the argument and at least try for some sort of closure. Sure. There will still be trolls that start things for absolutely no reason than personal entertainment. That's the nature of all forums though. The insight of being able to distinguish between the here and fore is a skill that a true Moderator should possess. Just because you know a lot about knives doesn't necessarily mean you can be a fair and effective Moderator. Rich or poor. A few,or,a gaggle of knives in our collections. Vendor,smith or collector. We are all in this hobby together.
