I posted a portion of this message over in the Tig's sister thread, but then immediately wished I'd just started another thread to discuss it, so here it is:

I've noticed there are more and more of these prayer/hug type threads creeping back in here at Mudcat. I thought a consensus of sorts had been reached to use Jon's forum for this sort of thing, because these sorts of threads eventually create so much dissension and discord in the forum.

Or has that compromise gone out the window, and people intend to use the forum as their support group again?

It would be nice if the forum could follow the example Rick Fielding set for this sort of thing, IMO.

Can someone update me on what proper Mudcat etiquette is in this regard? AGAIN?
