Bingo Evie... and I agree mac, and will close this thread after this post.

I have never made it a secret, I am 100% in control of this forum, it is private, not corporate, it is paid for solely by myself, it is run voluntarily. I have a very open door policy, and I have a very tolerant nature about me to let people go and hang themselves, not try and restrict things, opinions, beliefs, etc... simply respect, however; the facts are that the majority of people here suffer trauma, the facts are that the majority of people here are women most of which have been sexually abused, raped, etc... and the facts are, Scott Fraser is the first person to step over the line (even in my presence) with sexually inappropriate behaviour towards females who feel very much insecure because of their trauma, to have sexual advances towards them in any way, shape or form upon the very community that is here and meant to be helping everyone, not hindering them.

I don't give a rats arse if someone is joking or the like, if sexual comments are made continuously towards females, specific types of females are singled out in private (ie. single ladies) and so forth, I know about it soon enough, and will not tolerate it at all. I had a lot of complaints about Scott, and I waited patiently to see if he would come around, I discussed all points with him in private, as other editors also had done, and comments still continued.

If a person cannot respect what may, or may not, be inappropriate to others, nor do they really care at all, then I have no issue in protecting the majority of the community at all.

Nobody ever just gets banned here, they are always warned prior. I had tracked Scotts complete history here once complaints started rolling in, and he was targeting single females, he was being inappropriate towards females on this forum in private messages and chat, married or not, that doesn't make him a saint, he was targeting women with inapprorpriate comments, questions and issues. Questions asked you could expect to see on a dating portal, let me just say that, not a PTSD support group.

This is not a pickup portal.

Call it a dictatorship or what ever you want, it is called moderating a forum and keeping it as healthy an environment for those here wanting and trying to heal. As Evie pointed out to go into details would violate privacy entrusted in the editors of the forum. What goes on is not always seen by the board as a whole but by us. But I agree a lock on this.
