I think we could all benefit from a little "moderation"
I think we're all pretty much in agreement -- there are some threads that have gone too far.
But I really hope that this doesn't swing 180 degrees the other way. Locking objective threads, telling people what they can and can not post about their experiences, and dictating what GCers can say in posts really isn't the solution. It's a harsh reaction to a problem that can probably be solved with a little community coercion.
It's all about common sense. There's a huge difference between bumping a buried thread once just to see what's up and stalking a PNM's school to determine what happened. There's a huge difference between hoping that somone gets their top choices of "Strawberry", "Cowboys" and "Bubbles" and saying that you (as an XYZ) really hopes she gets XYZ.
I'm really glad carnation pointed this out, I think everyone has probably contributed to the rush overkill a little bit -- but I think we also need to recognize that GC really is a good place for the PNMs to get a little support from people who *don't* know what's going on; sometimes it's exactly whatcha need.
