Forum disturbances

After reading through the above (and a number of messages sent privately), we have made the decision to permanently ban the 3 users in question. This forum attracts people who are often in a delicate place emotionally and need to be welcomed by a friendly and supportive community. This is not about censorship, freedom of speech, or anything else… so please don’t overthink it. I am extremely grateful for all of your feedback and I’m sorry to anyone who will miss the 3 banned users. If they choose to return under a new pseudonym and take a different approach to being positive a part of the community, I would think that would be a great outcome.
