For stepping in and clarifying what constitutes civil behavior.
I have been on the receiving end of distressing babblemails in the past and it took a long time to get things sorted out. Are they sorted out? I dunno. Haven't had any problems in about 2 months.
One lesson I've learned is never to say anything about another poster in a babblemail. Something along the lines of "you can't believe ____ she has borderline personality and is not to be trusted".
That kind of statement can be very harmful to the trusting relationship that is so vital to the support mission of babble.
Another thing I've learned is -- when in doubt say nothing. Things have an odd way of sorting themselves out. Those with less-than-honorable intentions create a series of consequences that will leave them exposed in the end. Consequences.
Let he who is without sin cast the first stone.

p.s. I don't think that anyone involved in this discussion is too mentally unstable to understand the implications of revealing personal information about another poster on the boards or in private communiques. In fact, for a group of people who have (often severe) mental illness, I find a great deal of integrity, common sense and compassion.
