I don't think anyone is telling anyone to 'shut up.' A situation has come up in which some hostile posts have appeared on our normally ultra supportive board. As a group, a community really, we are discussing how we think we should handle it. I am sorry if you interpreted my comments as a suggestion to shut up, they were intended more along the lines that I thought we should give her the benefit of the doubt and not post hostile things back, in the spirit of keeping this board a friendly place, that's all.
