Return of the banned people! Part II.

Lately, there hasnt been much debate in the Deaf Ed/CI threads like before.

That probably isn't a bad thing - that there's less debate these days. True, it might make it less interesting but there used to get so much heat (from myself included) ... I have been too busy with life these days to post much of anything except for an occasional post here and there in the General Chat, pretty much ..
 
I am not 100% sure if, Jillio will ever come back. I think she got banned more than 3 times. I don't see if, her screen name will show in Members List. :shrug:

Jillio is currently on her 5th ban.
 
I'm disappointed in her. with her background as counselor, she should be able to easily show some restraint especially in debate. she's one ban away from perm-ban. *SMH*

I have to say that I understand why Jillio responds the way she does. Sometimes political threads can get very heated. I know that if it weren't for my Clonazepam (please don't flame me because this is pertinent to the discussion), I would have been banned for the 5th time and eventually, the 6th. Aside from that, counselors aren't perfect. They're human too.
 
maybe petition might help if anyone of you who want someone to come back on ad to change alex mind.

:shrug:

sometimes having a petition do make a difference.

How do you make a petition for Alex?

That might be a little going into the ad hominem fallacy..

Person A made an opinion.
Person B counters it with something universal that adheres to A's statement but not exactly pertaining.
Person A's opinion is then made false by statement from B.

Might not be the correct way to retort, its better to provide an example directly to back up jillio. If I wanted to give an ad hominem back to you, I would say something like, "Well, not all online counselors end up getting banned after their first few notices."

My personal opinion was, the mods stated it over and over and a few times on the topics that got locked, for piping down.

Doesn't apply to mods only, but also our users:
When one gets fed up with people not listening to what another asked politely of, some end up taking matters into their hands themselves. It is natural instinct for them to stand up from their seat to state for what they feel was unfair and/or unjustified.

ASLGAL probably, most simply felt like she was getting attacked for her beliefs from my initial observations. Look at the first response from each unique user and see how it ended up going.
Only way was perhaps the method in which [it] was handled wasn't the right way to do it.

People learn, and move on.

You could post a topic, and rally your supporters.

Personally, if I didn't get to speak to Alex directly, I would have been permanently banned by now.

Oh that is a good question. i really dont how to start or make a petition. It is my wild guess by having lots of us to sign up the long lists and show moderators to see that lots of us want someone to come back. I assume this ad is for everyone as members. Moderators job is to supervise to make sure forums running good, control threads, cool off those members and ban someone. I dont know if moderators have rights too for this forum?

my :2c: just a thought.
 
I don't think that the petition will help, because once they were given some warnin' and yet, they still get ban for not followin' the AD's rule. They just keep repeatin' and get ban all over again.

It's best to let it go as is. Just leave the AD rules alone and follow what it requires of us to do. We need to learn how to refrain our sayin' and not to provoke others/moderators. If, it is too much heat for some ADers, it's best to go to elsewhere until your head is cool down.

I guess, AD needs A/C vent in each room to cool ADers. :giggle:
 
I thought having the peition do make a difference anyway.


some of members are not like a killer or something so bad. They have their rights to be angry when they make posts so opps. I cant image how someone is not allowed to come back because they disagree with someone else. that is no big deal to me. of course some of us dislike someone who disagree with us but its their rights. Provoking is something that we hate to deal with and they will get over with the provoking.

if someone mentions something so hurtful like i want to kill you.. then the member has to get OUT of this forum for a lifetime. that is different between with provoking and kill you.

its my opinion. we do need people with strong opinions here. :D
 
I made a thread of a petition to shorten Jillio's ban. Please go sign it. :)
 
as stated from AD's rule

Quote:
First offense - Warning
Second offense - 24 hours ban
Third offense - 48 hours ban
Fourth offense - 1 week ban
Fifth offense - 1 month ban
Sixth offense - Permanent ban
Thanks for posting that. I wondered why jillio had 30 days and I had only 1 day.

I don't remember a warning unless it was the Mod closing the thread for review or I was so caught up in it that I missed a PM.
Regardless, I deserved the banning.

Don't be hard on jillio because maybe her profession should have changed something, In my profession I have to take control of out of control situations and behaviors all the time so the same could be said of me.
Politics! The heated forum thread :D

Jillio has stated that when she comes on AD to debate, she leaves the role of counseling to other stuff and just come as herself, as the person. Just like I come here, I am not here as a teacher in some of the threads. I am coming here as me, Shel so when someone told me that because I am a teacher, I should talk or behave in a certain way..I say, "Am I in the classroom?"

I agree.

Anyone should be able to be themselves without their professions lingering over head. A person is a person regardless of what profession or where they work.

People are not working 24/7 They need to be able to be themselves.
