I’ve been on the internet since webtv came out. In a play off the never have I ever thread I can state clearly that I have never been sent an inappropriate picture. Luckily for them. My spit nails side would come alive 
. I’ve been sent comments that broke boundaries but I’m a big girl and shoot them down fast.

I can edit your username, and I am up now.

You could also set your account to private so people cannot look at your profile… I’ve gone back and forth on this myself because in all reality I’m here to help myself and other people and if my posts resonate with somebody and they want to hear more of what i say is nice for them to be able to find them… on the other hand if you have a creeper or you don’t necessarily want people to see your whole journey the private setting is good. I think it also makes it so people cannot pm you but I’m not totally sure about that.

You can send a PM to @moderators. Just tagging us @moderators does not work. You can tag us individually tho.

I would also caution people about calling out members who you believe or know are creeping on people. The FAQ states…
Respect each other. Don’t harass or grief anyone, impersonate people, or expose their private information.
Part of each members social contract with TS is that when you read something or receive something that is troubling, questionable or against the rules, that you FLAG IT and allow the moderators to handle it, versus publicly calling someone out.
As has been expressed many times over the years, vigilantiism will not be tolerated on the forum and can result in your own flag, silencing or suspension.
We take any and all forms of harassment seriously. We also expect forum members to follow the rules and FAQs and allow the process to work as intended.
As always, please PM any concerns or issues to @moderators. Thank you!

It’s what you use to start a fire when you’re in the woods. Bear Grylls told me that.

I’ve got a a voice for print. Seriously. I get asked if I’m doing a Joe Pesci impression…to which I reply, “no, I’m just talking”.

Telling anyone who didn’t ask that you w*nked to their pic is encroaching in any context, even on tinder (where I’m not) imo.
Yet to be fair I changed my profile pic for privacy reasons. This was only a welcome side effect.
Really appreciating the loving support by a strong lady on this one. Feels like a hug. Thanks Laura.

Hi Sassy,
Thanks for the reminder, I think this is a good point for all threads, if you find something wrong or offensive, flag, don’t engage. The moderators can help. Have a great day!

Yesterday I flagged a post and also respectfully engaged with the poster to give them the chance to correct their offensive language. Noone knows everything and we all deserve chances to grow and improve. I see nothing wrong with that. It’s of course up to each of us how we respond to those challenges to grow.

Yes, that is indeed one of our guidelines. You can review them in the FAQ and also the Rules.
No, that is not in the rules. I posted them above, if you would like to review them. The FAQs are also extremely helpful.

Mute and ignore can be very helpful tools for threads, as well as other members if necessary. We are each responsible for our own experience here.

I get it that isn’t explicitly stated in the rules, in these exact terms, but still I think that this expectation of civility is covered in rule #1, Be Civil. Like, to me that’s common sense: when you’re civil, you don’t trash talk people, doesn’t matter what they did. You flag it and the responsible parties (moderators) do the jobs they do so well. Then you leave, or block, or silence the user or the thread (details on how to do that here: How to Mute / Ignore User or a Thread).
This platform isn’t a spectator sport where people watch others duke it out about what they perceive to be the sins of others. It’s not an audience activity where we talk with each other (in public or in private) about the “performers” as if we were viewers talking about celebrities on a show.
This platform is about getting sober, for every human here, whether you understand their behaviour or not. (Note that I say “understand”, and not “like”. Sobriety is not a popularity contest.)
As the old saying goes, sobriety isn’t easy, but it is simple: get your ego out of the way, ask for help, and work on yourself. It’s the same on Talking Sober: get your ego out of the way, ask for help (from moderators, if the issue is a disruption to the forum), and work on yourself.

I had that happen too, a guy saying the same thing. It was a while ago. I think I flagged it.
