Dealing with disruptive visitors

[gwpriester]

I posted A POLL in the Xara X Conference asking whether the moderators should bar people from the conferences who do not know how to behave in a civil manner.

We'd like your opinion.

Define civil (with the obvious exception of real abuse). Sometimes, discussions get heated, but shouldn't be classified as "uncivil."


"A smoking flax He will not quench; a bruised reed He will not break."

[Crow Haven]

As in polite, courteous--a positive sincere consideration of others that springs from inherent thoughtfulness. Civil implies merely refraining from rudeness. Rudeness--a deliberate lack of consideration for others' feelings, a disregard of even the most elementary of good manners, ("dissing" as some may know the term, or "name-calling"), personal attacks, slander.
