Note From Your ListMom

[Guest guest]

Hey, ladies --

This is included in the List Rules, but in case you didn't remember: ***If

you receive harassing e-mails privately from someone on our list, PLEASE

FORWARD THE E-MAILS TO ME AT OSSG-PREGNANT-OWNER (AT) YAHOOGROUPS (DOT) COM ... I

already have the membership list set up with only moderator access, so they

won't get your e-mail address that way. But if you send a post to the list,

your e-mail address can be seen by other list members (unless they still

have that feature where you can have them " hide " your e-mail address... I

haven't checked lately to see if that feature is still available, but click

on your " Edit My Membership " link and see if that's where it is).

At any rate, I do NOT want members leaving simply because they can't get rid

of harassing private e-mails from other listmembers. I (or or Sheila)

will deal with the offending members myself, either warning them or banning

them from the list, or perhaps even reporting them to Yahoo or to their ISP

if things are that out-of-hand.

Please let me help you if I can! As I state in the List Rules, I want this

to be a safe place where people can discuss our unique situation of post-op

pregnancy -- I understand that people come from widely varying points of

view apart from our topic, and that's fine. I myself have very deep beliefs

and convictions. But this is not the place for those convictions to be aired

if they're being used as a bludgeon against another group member who doesn't

share my beliefs. I would not want anyone to form a poor opinion of my

beliefs based on my wielding them as weapons! That being said, I would not

object to anyone sharing their beliefs within an e-mail as long as the topic

is pertinent AND positive - encouraging - edifying - etc. Let's all be good

ambassadors of our respective camps, please!!!

And in the meantime, let us talk of babies!
